2% + CC processing fees? That's expensive. Also, this is a pre-order platform. Not really a 1-to-1 with Magento

Yes, and Magento is many many thousands of dollars in engineering costs. Celery is two lines of code you paste into a website. Or it's an API. Which is the platform, and it takes live orders. It just so happens that many of its clients started post-Kickstarter with pre-orders.
It looks like it specializes in pre-orders, but they also support real-time charging.
