How long does it take for them to charge your account? I bought a few a couple days ago and my account still hasnt been charged. Wondering if this is normal?
 
It can take anywhere up too five days. I think they wait a few days to charge in case their are multiple purchases within the same timeframe- this allows them to charge your account once instead of small, multiple charges.
 
Apple likes to wait a while so that they can bundle up multiple purchases into one credit card transaction. If they ran individual transactions for every 99c app and song the credit card transaction costs would leave them not making any money. :)
