When does Apple charge your CC?

[Actual Size]

I'm thinking of ordering the iPad2 but am wondering, with the 2-3 week wait time, when do they charge your credit card?

I assume it would be when it ships, right?

The will pre-auth funds immediately. This may or may not reduce your credit line but it goes away after a few days. They will do the actual charging when it ships and may not show up for a day or two later.

Usually you will see a pending charge for the amount, and depends on your bank. Mine takes about 4 days to a week, or after Vendor shipped the product.

Ok, thanks guys. I'm going to order my iPad2 today.

Hopefully it will be before the 2-3 week shipping time. But if not, at least I know I'll be getting one.
