Splitting transaction - why?

Hi

Recently made a purchase from Marisota for £69.99, using Natwest Visa card.
It appeared in my online statement as follows.... i.e. The two individual items and then the carriage.

07 Jul 9432 04JUL17 -£33.00

07 Jul 9432 04JUL17 -£33.00

06 Jul MARISOTA -£3.99
Debit Card Transaction

I have never seen this before. Why has the transaction been split up in this way?

Cheers.

    No ideas why, but did you buy two things for £33 each & £3.99 delivery?
  • Yes, two of the same item and then carriage on top. Not a big deal but it seems odd. I thought they might have set up some kind of account which could take continuous payment but they haven't retained the card details.

    Marisota sell a lot via ebay.

    Many Ebay sellers work in items rather than totals
  • Ah, ok thanks.
