One anecdote that happened to me earlier this year, with my first and only purchace over the internet: Since I don't have a credit card, I borrowed a colleague and used that to order some flowers from FTD, then paid him back in cash. To ensure that I paid him the right amount, I printed out the confirmation to give to him. The browser I was using happened to refresh documents before printing them, and it seems that the print code didn't check the method before submitting... I'm just glad there were humans in the loop at FTD who managed to correct the error before the poor lass got drowned in flowers :-) Simon
