OK. I was just getting a bit frustrated, and this system "feature" was a point of misunderstanding on my part. The whole sale process was automated up to this point, but the last step seemed just not to work. There was nothing in either of my confirmation emails to indicate that the purchase was going to wait for human approval--it simply said to confirm the info, and the purchase would be activated (presumably immediately, as one would expect when dealing with email bots). I think in light of my frustration (which can't be unusual), the "First Time Buyer" email really needs rewording to clearly indicate that real people are processing the last step of the sale, not the server. -Adam
