Thanks, everyone. I did believe Vitacost - the company itself - would be perfectly "fine," due to the positive comments I've read on the forum, but I'm just cautious about ordering from sites that are "new" to me. The unauthorized charges I had experienced a couple of years ago from a certain other website was a huge headache for me -- over $2,000 in unauthorized charges at sites I had never even heard of. My bank credited my account fairly quickly, but their investigation found that the site I ordered from had been "hacked." They were a legit company, but their website was apparently lacking in security. Ever since then, I've been cautious with any online ordering from sites that are "new" to me.

Thanks, again. I do appreciate the feedback.

On 5/9/2014 Blubird said: I like to use PayPal whenever possible and it seems easier then filling out the information. My credit card account is through Bank of America. On their website I can use the safe shopper option which gives me a temporary one time credit card number. I use the temporary number when I'm ordering from a website I may not be familiar with. I also use it when I am ordering a magazine subscription or any other item that could keep being sent to me on a regular basis. The temporary credit card number is only active for whatever amount of time I want and also only for the amount I put in or less. It is great for those magazine subscriptions which are so thoughtful that they want me to keep receiving the magazine year after year after year and will keep charging my card so I don't need to worry about renewing.

Interesting info on the safe shopper option. I don't think my bank has that, but it's something I'd like to look into. Thanks, Blubird!

You're welcome, i like celery. I order my eyelash growth stuff through alldaychemist.com. I wouldn't order from them if I didn't have a one time number!
