Default PayPal Issue?

I'm trying to order the Pipe Dreams splash guards for my new '08 C6. Had them on my '05 and was very pleased.

Trying to order one set of splash guards, and 1 extra set of clips. Every time I get to the final page to pay, it bumps the splash guard quantity to 2, and wants to double the charge to my Master Card. I have tried it 10 times, and even tried just the splash guards without extra clips. Same problem over and over--I initially select 1, and it bumps it to 2 at final "Pay Now" checkout page.

If I select the clips first, and splash guards second, it bumps clips quantity to 2.

Anyone else ever experience this? PayPal issue?

I did send an email to Pipe Dreams, discussing the issue.

Not sure what that is. Maybe it's best if they send you the paypal link with exact dollar amount. That always works. Of course, their closed today I assume.

I take CC, just and FYI, giving someone your CC over the phone is the least secure method there is

Both sides have had their say.

This should have been handled offline to begin with.
