The only reason for any merchant to put a "hold" on ANY amount (or, as
we call it, a "pre-authorization") is to make sure that the users
credit/debit card is actually valid for the amount of the purchase..


Well, no, sometimes a vendor just wants to know that the credit card
is good.

That said, I've never seen a pre-authorization for a dollar, always
the amount of the purchase rounded off (most recently, $37).
