This is not the place to find Linden Lab support. The forums are more for discuss things about Second Life. It is not really the place to solve personal issues with Second Life.

https://support.secondlife.com/  is a better place to get answers from Linden Lab IMHO.

You used the Limit Buy option, it's not guaranteed to be filled. You get lindens if another user sells their lindens with a matching price (and after other people in the queue get theirs).

You can cancel your order if you don't want to wait.

But it will usually get filled after some time of waiting. So the 1998 is just the first batch that got a deal.

You get the worst (market) price that way, paying more and giving LL extra income, all for an instant execution.  A Limit order with the best buy price might take 15 mins to execute.

You do not give LL extra income. You are not buying $L from LL. While LL administers the Lindex, buying and selling $L are user to user transactions.

E.g., Merchant wanting to cash out sells their $L on the Lindex. You, wanting $L to spend In World then buy them for cash.

But you do get a better rate with Limit Buy, that there is no question.

Tilia collects higher US dollar transaction fees from the buyer and seller with a Market order, than a Limit order.  Those add up with millions of transactions.
