What's the most you ever charged to a credit card in one single swipe?

Charged $5000 on Amex PRG.  I had the cash but wanted the points.  I paid it as soon as it posted.  I remember Amex initially denied the charge and the merchant looked at me like I knew dam well the charge wouldn't go through. LOL.  I immediately called Amex and they simply wanted me to verify it was me and told me to ask the mechant try again. When it went through the merchant was shocked and started trying to sell me stuff I didn't need nor want.  I wanted to say kiss my arse so badly but I didn't.

$10,000.31 on my Ritz-Carlton 2 days after I activated. This did prompt a call from JPM the next day lol I think it was a CYA moment for them. As a "convenience" they send your card already activated in the mail, so if it falls into the wrong hands they are 100% on the hook for it.

$10K  on Amex BCP at Home Depot. That was this year for storm damage materials.  I paid $5 K before the charge even went from pending to posting.

That was a small part of a much bigger investment project. Not the biggest single cash transaction I've ever been a part of, but the biggest that didn't require 'good funds.'
