What leads me to believe this is that it was precisely a month from when paypal subtracted the funds to when they returned them. Perhaps an email to paypal support could get the official line on what happened, and whether B&N actively gave you a refund.

I'd be very interested to know the cause. If they're refunding money, that's not good.
Same thing happened with my credit card. There was a hold on about 250 from when I preordered to about the beginning of my new statement on the 20th of last month. They haven't put the hold up again, but I assume they will just charge me when the 250 comes due.
