When dealing with Amazon, moving any ancillary stuff-and-nonsense to the back is a good move, though if you move a "Preface" to the back it gives the books an "idiot publisher" look if you don't also rename it "Afterword", or similar. If it contains material that should be read before reading Chapter One it should stay in the front.
