Okay, basically, I bought mine from hopebuy via credit card, Ipay

I dealt with the entry of data all fine and dandy until the page AFTER you submit the card info.

It loaded perfectly, and told me that the transaction was successful(thankfully I know chinese).

But then there was some pop-up, that was blocked by my iexplore.

I was curious as to what it was, so I decided to enable popups on that site.

However, what I didn't know was that by enabling pop-ups, it would also refresh that page.

For those of you more familiar with the internet, you would know taht by refreshing, you can't/shouldn't resubmit post-data, which I decided not to, in case they charged me double. So basically now I can't access that page.

Now I have 2 questions

1) Was there any info I had to take note of on that page(I'm going to have to kick myself for this one)

2) Was there anything else I need to do after that page? More specifically, after submitting the card info to the page, what else do I have to do, or was that the last page I had to deal with? Am I supposed to wait for a confirmation email from hopebuy? Approx when will that come?(this is more than 2 questions)

Sorry, I'm kind of in a hurry, since I have to leave the country soon.

K, thx.

If I understand you correctly, then the page you saw was the order confirmation - you should get an email invoice confirming the purchase details.

As for a refresh re-sending post data, then it does.  IE is an awful browser, and if you are in the least concerned about online security then you should get yourself a (free) copy of Firefox from http://www.getfirefox.com

Actually I do use firefox, just that there was some problems in the purchase while using firefox, so I decided to switch over to IE temporarily.


How long should the email take to come?

As far as I remember, the confirmation email came pretty much right away after I purchased it, but you should perhaps allow 24 hours.  If you are in doubt, you could always email hopebuy and query it with them.

If it was me, I would check my credit card online after 24 hours to see if the payment has come off as well.

When I bought mine, it went to the 'transaction successful' page - I don't remember any popups at all, but I have a very good blocker running , and everything went through smoothly.

I would assume that it is OK since you were directed to the confirmation page, and sleep on it for now

don't worry.... hopebuy can be trusted.
if they recieved your payment , u will get your supercard within 4 days.
my supercard break down 2 times within 4 mths. they replaced new supercard for me twice. they are excellent service.

BTW, what does "process at location"  mean?

I did the same thing as the OP with the blocked pop-up confirmation.  Hopebuy received my payment and I wasn't charged twice.  I wouldn't worry.

It wouldn't hurt to shoot Hopebuy off an email saying that you made payment, though, just in case they don't get an immediate confirmation from iPay.

iPay is a horrible site; if it's true that Hopebuy's accepting eBay again you should really go with that option next time for you own peace of mind.
