I also think that orders should be reserved by when you PAY.

I don't quite disagree with you since I did pay instantly, but that could be problematic for anyone paying by wire, no? It sure would suck to get one of the first orders in and then be pushed back to the second batch just because you had cash in hand and had to wait 3 days for it to get transferred.

Say what you will, but paying in BTC would have solved this exact problem.

BTC orders should get priority in the order they were paid.

I understand why they might not do this, but BTC supporters should not be punished because of fiat problems.

In all fairness, the lack of protection with an as yet untrusted seller is a bitcoin problem, and that's why many of us chose not to use it and opted for paypal/CC instead. I had the BTC and could have gotten the discount, but didn't because there wasn't enough trust yet and therefore required the protection.

So yes, solved one problem, by opening the door to another. BTC is a great technology, its just not done growing yet.
