Default rainbowten question

for those who have ordered from rainbowten before, maybe you guys can help answering this question.

I have placed order with rainbowten two weeks ago. I recieved my package within 5 days. However, this purchase is not showing up on my credit card statement. I wonder if they are holding the card number until yen is worth more then charge it.

Or is it normal for the transaction to show up late since it is an international purchase?

Any help would be appricated. Thanks.

you probably missed this months cutoff date. like Zoombie said, it'll show up next month.

now if you can check your credit card online, then it should be there

Two other transcations made in the state after my purchase with rainbowten showed up on the statement. so I think I was before the cutoff date.

that's why I was worried about this purchase not showing up on the statement.

I beleive it's how rainbowten's accounting works. I beleive they wait for a month's charges to build then they send them to a international or foreign clearing house do charge all the credit cards. So it's like net 30 terms in a way ,but the suck part is you don't know how the yen is doing when it does go through.

yeah..... I did a little research for about a week and a half to wait for a good yen/us exchange price. Now.... it's meaningless.... just hope yen isn't doing so good next month.. or whenever they have the card charged.

Yup the only reason why it did not show up is because you mised the cut off date or the Accredited Bank to which your credit card is affiliated with is to slow.

They will not send the items if your card is not approved.

I have been ordering parts from them and i lik ethe service, fast!

It was probably delayed becuase, only one person knows how to speak in english at their office who is NAO.

I know because I called them to inquire about an order and she said she is the only one who can clearly and fluently read and speak english.

Hope it helps clear things out.

Peace

That is normal. Don't worry. Also, why would you worry if it doesn't show up?? Free hop-up parts!!!
