toms.nl?
Hello all, I had a quick question:
I pre-ordered a few 1/18s from toms.nl. They tried to process payment, and my bank apparently didn't approve it- I had to log into my bank's website and confirm it was me that made the charge with toms, but payment never went through. I got an email from toms with a link to pay by credit card, followed it again, and still, it wouldn't process.
I logged in this morning and not only was the order I tried to pay for gone, but all the pre-orders have vanished.
Has anyone else in the US experienced this with them?
Any recommendations for alternative sites?
I'm looking for Premium Classixxs' UAZ 469, Triple9's Lada Niva (the IST/IXO version just looks... wrong somehow), and KK Scale's Mercedes 560SEC in blue.
Thank you in advance! Hope you're having a great day!

Happened to me today with Best Buy
I was trying to order a washer and dryer on their site and my bank flagged it as possible fraud. I'm glad they're on top of it, but I've been on hold all afternoon trying to contact the bank and tell them it was me!

.nl is in the Netherlands so if you aren't in Europe the bank will check.
One thing to do is have your card linked to your phone so you can immediately confirm or deny a charge they find questionable without dealing with a person.
