Same thing happened to me, except when Wallet hung it apparently processed my order. I'm glad I checked twice since I had two orders (Nexus 10, not Nexus 4 - Had no chance of getting that guy).

Had the same issue with the same device. I received a notification from my credit card vendor for a large purchase for the first one, but wallet service hung up and wasn't even waiting for a response anymore, and the items weren't removed my cart so I made a second purchase, which showed up immediately in my orders. Half hour later I received two receipts, and a second showed up in my orders screen.

So, heads up if anyone made a similar mistake :) It's easy enough to cancel the order if you need to.
