Key Takeaways
The core event
A Mexx Man Eau de Toilette 50 ml order on Amazon.com.mx (Mexico, North America) was shown with a mid-December delivery window, then described as canceled by the customer.
The money question
Many online orders are not fully charged until shipment, but banks can still show a temporary hold that later disappears.
The calm way to confirm
The clearest picture comes from the official order page and the bank’s “pending” versus “posted” status, not from links inside messages.
Story & Details
A simple product, a busy status line
The item was plain and specific: Mexx Man Eau de Toilette 50 ml, one bottle, priced at 1,522.81 Mexican pesos. The order screen carried a step-by-step shipping track with multiple stages still marked as not yet moved forward, the kind of display that can look stuck even when nothing is wrong.
Dates that mattered in the week
The order date was December 8, 2025. A delivery estimate pointed to December 15–16, 2025. With today being December 13, 2025, that delivery window was still ahead on the calendar, yet the order itself was described as already canceled, with the reason stated as a customer cancellation. The seller name attached to the item was EVOLVE MARKET.
Why a charge can seem to appear anyway
A cancellation can feel final, but card systems sometimes leave a footprint. A bank may show a temporary hold—especially with certain debit transactions that run without a PIN—before the final charge is settled. In many cases, that hold fades on its own. If a real charge posts, a refund can follow, and timing can differ by card type and bank.
A short Dutch mini-lesson for everyday money talk
“Mijn bestelling is geannuleerd.” This sentence is used to state, in a neutral way, that an order is canceled. Word by word: “mijn” = my; “bestelling” = order; “is” = is; “geannuleerd” = canceled. A common, slightly more formal variant is “Mijn bestelling werd geannuleerd,” which can feel a little more report-like.
“Het staat nog in behandeling.” This is used when something is not finished yet, often seen with payments or requests. Word by word: “het” = it; “staat” = stands; “nog” = still; “in” = in; “behandeling” = handling or treatment. In daily speech it is not harsh; it is practical and common.
A quiet safety habit
When checking an order or a payment, it helps to go straight to the official site or app by typing the address, instead of following a link that arrives in a message.
Conclusions
A small story with a familiar feeling
A canceled fragrance order can still leave a lingering question in the bank feed. In most cases, the gap between “pending” and “posted” explains the fear: a hold looks like a charge, then melts away. The cleanest ending is simple—an order marked canceled, a bank line that either vanishes or turns into a clear refund—and the week moves on.
