The last time I preordered a game, I had played a leaked alpha build for a while before release, for like 40 hours. It was pretty broken, but it was a lot of fun, so I figured it was fair to pay for the game already.

I'd say there are very exceptional cases where it isn't absurd to preorder, but those are less than 1% of all preorders that actually take place.
