Please be patient with us. We are trying our best to obtain these items for our customers. If the item is unavailable after the "On Hold" is gone, it means that the item is no longer available due to the fact that our supplier is out of stock at the moment.

When an order is placed to our system, our system automatically sends an invoice notification to our customer indicating what he/she has ordered from us. The initial authorized amount which appears in your credit card statement is a temporary authorization and it is not an actual/final charge yet. This authorization gives us the permission to charge your credit card later when your order is filled and completed. This amount that is indicated on the authorization is a temporary hold amount/limit for us to charge your card. We will place an actual charge on your card once your order is prepared and ready to be shipped. The 2nd charging amount in your card statement is the actual/final charge from us (this final amount includes the grand total of all the available ordered items, shipping&handling fee, insurance coverage fee, and any other additional requested services i.e. Gift Wrap Service). At this point, the initial temporary authorization amount will eventually be replaced by the second amount(actual/final amount), and will appear and remain in your next credit card statement.
(Note: Authorization and Final Charges are the leading cause of a declined order for International orders. Please make sure you have enough credit limit in your credit card before making a purchase with us.)
If there is a decline in your credit card, we will notify you about the decline via e-mail. Your order will be "On Hold" status until we receive response from the customer.
