I purchased a song but its not showing up?

Question

I bought a song on iTunes, knowing I had $3.09 dollars in my account left. The song was 1.29. When I clicked ''buy song'', after I entered my password, 2 seconds later this thing came up that said my payment was declined. I pressed ok, but when I checked how much money I had left on my itunes account it was 89 cents although the song was not purchased!!! what the ****?!? ITUNES ROBBED ME
I turned the power off on my device and that didn't help.
If I find out I have to do some crazy stuff to fix this problem then I'll just put more money on my account soon, but seriously.
iPod 4g, software up to date

When you make purchases in iTunes, it will and can take up to 24 hours to refresh on your end. So if you have made purchases before this and if you do not know how to keep track of your own purchases, you may have had less money in there, but did not refresh on your account for you to see accurately. so no, iTunes did not rob you, you just don't know how to manage your money, and probably didn't have enough store credit in your account to cover the purchase, so iTunes took the rest of your store credit and paid the rest on your card, and your bank declined the purchase causing the account to have an unpaid order on it.
To view your purchase history go here: See your purchase history in the iTunes Store
You will see there the unpaid order. In order to pay it, you'll have to use an alternative credit card or purchase more iTunes store credit. Hope this helps.
