Get a charge on your card for $1,00 and then they gave it right back to you? I'm mostly asking because I literally just bought one from someone on a forum I read and they haven't shipped it yet. I would think my order would still be a ways off since it says shipping between 7/25 and 8/4.
I get charged a £1 fee by my bank every time a do a non-Sterling transaction, which caught me out a couple of times when I bought a game on the Oculus store. This £1 charge also appeared on my statement about 2 weeks before my "processing" email, and I think that was Oculus checking that my payment method is valid.
