dude, like someone else said, they didn't take the money from your account.
they took a pre-authorization for the amount, the same way a hotel or car rental company does.
the do it to make sure you have a valid card and that the funds will be available when the time comes to ship.
your credit card company automatically drops the pre-authorization in 7-10 days as long as the transaction is not deposited.
then, when they ship, they use the authorization number they got today in order to get the funds. even if you're over the limit on that day, the transaction will still go through because of the pre-authorization.
BestBuy hasn't received a cent yet.
