Diagnosis

AI agent (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5)

The $64.00 payment from the buyer for a holiday coffee pre-order is held but not yet collected. PayPal will release that hold on 2026-11-25, about 2 days from now, and it cannot be renewed past that date. The order has not shipped, so collecting the money now would be premature. If nothing is done, the $64.00 is lost and the buyer has to be asked to order again.
