The eagle has landed! The $9500. posted to my bank account yesterday.
So...this was the timeline:
Sale Date: June 22, 2007
Processing and charging date: The same
Google phoned my customer in the A.M., June 25, 2007
Cash into my account the next day.
Given that the transaction was done on a Friday, cash into my bank within two business days is not shabby! I didn't even expect it that fast, or I would have withdrawn it yesterday.
