Payment system problems
We're still having trouble tracking down a minor bug with the payment system:
* In some rare cases, trying to complete a payment will result in an error message. It seems to be even odds whether the failure happens before or after your card has been charged, but either way, the items won't be applied to your account. If this happens to you, the error message asks you to open a support request in the Account Payments category: please do so! I'll be able to check whether your card has been charged, and if so, make sure you get the items you paid for.
(EDIT: There was another point here about a different problem that had cropped up since last night, but further investigation turned up that it was only a variant of the above, and only a single payment was affected by it. So, false alarm there!)
I'm really sorry about the hassle, folks! We've been trying to work out what's causing this to happen, but no luck so far. If you ever have questions about whether or not your payment has gone through, just open a support request to ask, and I'll get to it as soon as possible. (This weekend there might be some delay, since my sister's getting married! But usually it's a pretty quick turnaround.)
