All in all great cooler for the money and has always worked reliably. Excellent for a backup cooling system or for low-cost budget computers, while still being able to overclock.

Doesn't seem like that big a deal. I wouldn't be worried about screwing up your parent's credit card or whatever.
I think I know what fraud verification thingy your talking about. "Verified by Visa" is one of them. It just verifies the card by asking for a PIN when completing the transaction. If the order went through twice then you'll either get two CPUs, or if they get your e-mail, they'll cancel one of them.
The worst thing that could happen is that the credit card company puts a hold on that particular charge until the cardholder calls to verify the charges.
I got that when I ordered $1300 of computer hardware from newegg. I had only used the card for a gym membership and when they saw the $1300 charge the held that transaction until I verified the amount over the phone.
It's kinda nice actually, they do that with most large online purchases over $300 (if you don't do that regularly) to keep someone from illegally using your card.
I'm sure everything will be alright even if you have to drive an hour to get your CPU.

Yea, I just wish i can get a hold of them to cancel the one order. After reading a lot of reviews on various sites about them disappearing for awhile I'm getting worried. I'm ready to call up and have both charge backed and go to newegg where there are no problems. Its not just the hour drive, its having my parents wait home all day or days since fedex does not deliver on the day they say they are its just a big mess, is what it is. I would feel a lot better if i had received an email today about this. I know their site is not pulling in that many orders and apparently he has other sites that are probably more important. And what really stinks is that my cpu is going to be gone today and i will have no computer to top that off.
