I accidentally bought a game while my VPN was on (lemm.ee)

I bought Mega Man X Dive Offline, really hyped for it, but then when I double checked my VPN, I realized it was set for the Netherlands.... Not good, I thought I had it set for the US as per usual.

Now it still showed the price in USD, but now I'm paranoid, I put in a refund explaining the situation and promising I'd buy it with the VPN turned off this time..

How fucked am I?

Is the netherlands price even different? If you aren't changing the vpn to Argentina or some other country with an undervalued currency, you'll probably be fine.
