The Pine64 staff will be happy to know that I did finally receive a reply - in the form of a PayPal invoice. This is okay, but it would be better to receive the PayPal invoice __and__ a real reply. I mean, I have in the past received fraudulent PayPal invoices. In this case, I was expecting it and able to act accordingly, but it would be best to have an additional message.
Anyway, now the trouble with my bank begins. My bank uses MasterCard as the processor for their debit (ATM) cards. Apparently, MasterCard flags all foreign transactions as fraud without exception; even if it first passes through the US company PayPal. I finally resolved payment with a different credit provider (who, incidentally, also processes with MasterCard but doesn't seem to have this problem. Weird.)
At this time, PayPal website tells me payment has been sent, but I have not received a (PayPal) receipt in my email account, nor a Pine64 receipt.
