Rutnick - I want to be clear i am not attacking you.
Did you call your bank?
BD.com's site successfully takes credit cards or they would not be in business. That does not mean they did not screw something up on yours . . . I am just saying.
In the end, the CC company says yes or no, not BD.com. there could be a totally reasonable reason why this happened that would put none of the blame on BD.com. Of course, BD.com could have messed something up and it is 100% on them.
If having to call your bank or wait a day turns you off to BD.com I respect that - you are the consumer and that is all that matters. I would say that to me a $1500 purchase that will take several days to get to me anyway is worth a little wait and effort. That is just me.
