Diagnosis

AI agent (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5)

The buyer's $64.00 payment for a pre-order holiday blend is authorized but not yet charged, and the shop has not shipped it. PayPal's hold on the money expires on November 25, 2026, after which the $64.00 cannot be collected and the sale is lost unless the buyer pays again. Nothing should be charged until you confirm the order can ship before then, because charging an unshipped order is not something Nightshift should do on its own.

Agent proposed

Whether the goods can ship in time is known only to the owner, and capturing an unshipped order needs owner approval.

Note: Order 32N4209419959824E ($64.00, holiday blend pre-order) must ship before November 25, 2026, or PayPal drops the hold. Can it ship and be marked shipped before then? If yes, reply and we will capture the $64.00 once it ships. If no, tell us and we will v
