How many days the verification could take? I first time bought a smaller piece of bitcoin and wanted to do some shopping from that, but I still my wallet contains only not confirmed bitcoins.

My questions are:


Why the confirmation takes so long?
I saw a page that shows the total count of unconfirmed transactions, its increasing, not decreasing - could it mean that my transaction will never be confirmed?
How does the confirmation work?


Thanks!
Because you have paid a lower fee than others, so your transaction is put last. Your coins will return to your wallet, but can take up to 4-6 days before that happens. Hope it helps you.
