I have one word for you my friend: chargeback.  Call your credit card issuer and state that you a retail outlet made a sale, made some promises on that sale, and charged you $278.<p>This is the easiest action you can do to deal the most damage.  Anyone who processes payments knows that chargeback hurt a lot.  Chargebacks are a consumer protection, so they are easy to do.<p>If a company makes a promise to give you X, Y, &#38; Z at a certain price, they have to follow through.  You have a few options, but chargebacks can be the simplest way to get there.
