    They charged mine a little while after I placed the order. Before it was shipped :\

    Neither.

    They put a "hold" on the card to ensure that the funds are available, which gets released after a few days.

    Once the machine is shipped, the card gets charged.

    The card is charged on the day that the machine is shipped.

    The moment they ship your unit. Prior that, the fund is on hold which makes it look as if you are charged but you are not.
