    Hey I just ordered a Lenovo Thinkpad T500 and the order was processed and everything. I went onto my online banking and it showed that I had payed for the laptop. Cause my balance was subtracted substantially. But then in a couple days I find that my account is about the same price it was before. Does that mean I dont have to pay for the laptop? in the online website for Lenovo it says still in progress.

    They probably just did a "test" transaction to make sure your account is legit. They'll charge the full amount once your order is fully processed.

    It's on pending, they will only charge once the unit is shipped.
