I wouldn't be so sure. I can't be certain but I think he's within his right to charge a cancellation fee for pre-orders as long as he is up front about it before you make the transaction (which, for all the other problems in his communication and the lack of straightforward information on his storefront, he is indeed up front about there being a 5% cancellation fee if you walk away from a pre-order). Personally I would think that the fair option would be to allow people out of pre-order agreements with no charge up to the point that the goods start coming in and orders are prepped to be fulfilled, but it's sometimes a wide gap between what's fair and what's legally obligated.
Also the people who are getting full refunds via charge disputes with paypal/their credit cards are doing it for failure of delivery (making the seller the one who is breaking the contract). It may very well be different if you're cancelling a pre-order that has yet to even reach the point of potential sale (where you as the buyer are the one breaking the contract.)
I'm not saying he deserves the money, but that it might not be as easy as assuming he
can't charge cancellation fees and that anyone
must be entitled to getting all of their money back for walking out on an order for
any reason.
