Placed a $918 iHerb Order, They Charged Me an Additional $473 WTF? (Solved)

I placed a $987.43 iHerb order - Subtotal was $918.75 with $68.68 shipping. Looking at my statement now they charged this full amount and also an additional $473.16. The transactions have the same code so they are from the same order. I (think) I have contacted them correctly but the contact bot on their page is atrocious. Does anyone know wtf this extra charge is?

UPDATE

I worked it out. The full amount is still pending. Shipment was split into 2 shipments and the $473 is the one that has shipped.

  • Isn't iHerb some sort of pyramid scheme?

      It's just an online store selling vitamins and supplements. It's a great place to get melatonin from too.

        that same product is literally 10x more expensive in Australia because of BULLSH!T

    Did you pay in USD and subsequently charged AUD?

    • This is highly likely

        I think it's far more likely that the full amount is still pending. I bet the shipment was split into 2 shipments and the $473 is the one that has shipped.

        In fact I'm 100% confident that's what happened. ;)

    I thought Silk Road was shut…
    $918 is a lot of $.

      Don't mention silk road, this is what happens when you do nothing wrong except threaten the criminal banking cartel.

    Better to spend $900 on real foods than supplements ;)
