Something doesn't add up here. My first card, when I was in high school/freshman in college (don't recall), had a limit of about that much. The thing is I was not making any $$ (maybe a few $k over the summer, but that's it) and had no real credit history to speak of. Maybe the bank messed up the location of the decimal point in my favor.
You sure they didn't just reject the charge as suspicious? If you've got that much cash on hand... [fill in the blanks about credit limits]
