I agree with you. I'm a developer and i think that the refund option is a good thing. However, i think that 24hours is a bit too long. It's actually even more than that. If i look at my sales report, the sales are not final after about 30 hours (6 more than the 24). The refund time-frame should be shortened. Upto about 6 hours, maybe?
