I have tried multiple times now to order an Aura from the Kobo website. Each time I try, the order fails with a "payment authorization error" message, but a hold for the amount of the reader ($169.99) gets placed on my account. The hold clears (I am not charged) after 3 days (my bank's policy) since the order was not actually placed. I have given up trying to order from Kobo.com (per Kobo support's suggestion) and tried to place an order with chapters.indigo.ca, however, they want to charge me $18 fro shipping. I would greatly prefer not to spend the extra $18 but I have no idea where else to order from. Are there any stores/websites in the US that sell the Aura at this time?
