That's interesting. Just this Monday, the 16th, I submitted a $158 show. The one CC purchase was for $39, and they sent me an e-mail. I opened it about 5:30 EDT, and called immediately. They submitted the CC a second time and it still did not get accepted. I resolved it by increasing the debit to my PC card, so that the hostess would get the order as quickly as possible, and not lose her benefits. Wed. I received notice that it had shipped, and it will be delivered today. So, it appears how they handle it is not a definite
change in procedures. Maybe it is dependent on the size of the CC charge, or the size of the party being held up. I am curious how large was the party and the charge involved when they called rather than e-mailed?
