  Hey there,

  Domains are a fickle thing. It can take up to forty-eight hours for DNS changes to fully propagate across the Internet. It looks like everything for your domain is setup properly, but hasn’t propagated completely yet.

  Everything should be ready to go soon. In the mean time, you can customize your blog directly from its dashboard here:

  Best,

  It looks like you purchased a Site Redirect upgrade, not Domain Mapping.

  Site Redirect points your WordPress.com blog URL elsewhere, it’s basically the opposite of Domain Mapping. Domain Mapping points a URL from elsewhere to your WordPress.com blog.

  I have canceled and refunded your Site Redirect upgrade, and you can map the domain following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
