I decided to just cave in and order a spec'd out MBP 16 from Adorama last night for about $4k, everything went through smoothly and my CC was charged. Ok, nothing out of the ordinary right? So I go to bed, check my email this morning and I get an email from them stating my order was on hold for verification and that it would be cancelled if I didn't contact them?
So I call them this morning and sure enough they said my order was declined because they couldn't verify something? I asked what couldn't they verify? I mean my CC was charged, there's a pending transaction from them so what isn't passing verification that wasn't verified at check out? They couldn't tell me at all, nada, nothing. Just that they couldn't verify my information, they tried a few times and each time it came back declined.
I have NEVER experienced this before at any online retailer. I simply don't understand what is going on and I'm wondering if any of you have had this experience with them? My information on my CC is current with all of my other cards, I'm at a loss and any insight to WTF is going on with Adorama would be appreciated.
