digital download invoicing mystery

Hello-
Last night I received my first order for digital downloads. It raises a couple questions.
1. With downloads, do I not get my standard proofing days so I can retouch and upload the full-resolution original? It appears I don't since there's no "replace photo" button on the order page. But what good is that?
2. I have my personal use originals priced as follows:
1 MP: $7.50
4 MP: $30.00
original: $60.00
And then the invoice for last night reads like this:
Qty Item Subtotal
1 Download: Original (Personal) $60.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
2 4 x 6 (Gloss) $10.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
2 4 x 6 (Gloss) $10.00 USD
2 4 x 6 (Gloss) $10.00 USD
1 Download: Original (Personal) $150.00 USD
5 4 x 6 (Gloss) $25.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
1 4 x 6 (Gloss) $5.00 USD
Total: $315.00 USD
So if my original files are priced at $60, how did this person get billed $150 for the second download?
Thanks,
Peter

I was not able to download the digital images--at least I couldn't seem to make it work.

The proofing indeed does not apply to Digital Downloads, I'm sorry. See the gotcha on this page: http://www.smugmug.com/help/sell-digital-downloads
I will reset the password for your customer, and let him know

The money charged is okay like it is?

Yeah, the money is okay. He apparently agreed to both charges when he paid it, and I feel like $60 for my original is too low anyway. I need to get into those galleries and update my pricing to be consistent throughout. But for this order, I'm fine with it as-is.
Thanks!
Peter
