I am a consumer and I have encountered this problem quite a few times. I'm 
not too sure if it mainly caused by the reasons I stated below but here are 
my share. And my phone is a rooted Galaxy Nexus.

This issue only happened when I attempt to use my Australian credit card to 
purchase apps/music/movies in USD (by link a US billing address to credit 
card in Google Wallet). In the past, it worked for all contents in Android 
Market. Since this year, buying musics and renting movies in this way will 
lead payment authorisation not responding, then order canceled 
automatically just like everyone reported. Then my whole account purchase 
function will be suspended until I manually lodge verification documents to 
Google Wallet and they manually re-activated my Google Wallet. This is 
really annoying. Even worse, since today I found buying apps are facing the 
same problem.

I made this attempt due 2 reasons. One is some contents are only available 
in US market and I want to buy them. I normally use market enabler apps+VPN 
to switch to US Play Store and make the purchase. The other reason is 
because some app price are set more expensive in non-US market, eg, 
Australia. Since I use my Australian credit card to purchase apps in USD, I 
will only be charged the equivalent amount of the app's US price (some time 
Euro price like EA Netherlands apps).

I'm still not sure if this "Took too long to delivery" is caused by the 
credit company authorisation or not. But I'm just quite unhappy as Google 
not listening and do not do any improve. Every time when I have to 
re-activate my Google Wallet I will pass along a long letter to suggest 
them improve or introduce prepaid card like Apple appstore, No one 
listened. And how come until yesterday it was still OK to purchasing apps 
in way while others not, there are must be some Google's setting that 
blocked this. Couldn't understand why Google block people from outside US 
buying contents.
