So here's what happened;
I placed an order for an XFX 6800GT AGP for $294.00 USD (including shipping) around 1:30pm EST. I got the first email confirmation saying my order would be processed soon. Usually the second one that notifies you of charging your account is almost immediate. Well not this time. About an hour late I get an email notifying me that my credit card has been declined. WTF!? I just deposited a paycheck a few days ago and have way more than enough...I haven't even filled up with gas yet! So I go to solve this mystery.
I make sure there is money in my account. All is fine there. So I canceled that order and went to start over again thinking maybe my information got screwed up somehow. I added the card to my cart again and went to checkout. Put in my ZIP code for shipping pricing and as always chose the fed-ex express. Well this time the total came out to $304.00 USD. Now what the crap happened? I only had one beer today. This is really stupid. I went to check their pricing on the card and they raised it! They raised the stupid card $5. Now $5 doesn't exactly kill my budget but come on now. They decline my card just to make an extra $5. What a bunch of *******s. I want that money back because I ordered it when it was cheaper. I was the early bird you homos!
EDIT: Sorry, the card at first was in fact $291.00 USD! Way to screw me over Newegg.
