It seems to be a standard practice now. If you tire a consumer out long
enough they will forget or figure it's not worth the frustration. Skip
the BBB they really can't do anything, (especially if the business is
donating to them every year). First get all your documentation in order
receipts etc. If you called them retain the phone bill showing the
number called. Second, file a consumer complaint with your state
attorney general. (Usually there is is a website where you can fill out
a complaint). It normally takes about three months for them to get a
resolution. (at least it does here in Washington). If that doesn't work
notify your credit card company in WRITING, submitting copies of all
your documentation and copies of the complaint you have made to the
state attorney general's office. If the amount is small the bank will
usually just eat it. If not they will get back to you with different
resolution scenarios. Such as return said item (showing proof you have)
or a partial refund. And most importantly, don't forget small claims
court if the firm has any sort of business in your area. (Not always
under the same name or business). In some states they are required by
law to have a attorney represent them costing them far more in legal
fees then the item itself cost.
The longest I had to wait was twelve months for $20.00 from Comp USA.
Currently Western Digital is playing games as well as Best Buy, Bellkin
and DVForge (MacMice). Another two weeks and I'll complain about them
with my attorney general. So your not alone.

He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his
life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to
the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such
devotion.

Jim,
Do report this to the Better Business Bureau and if you got the items
by mail, then it is USPS fraud. Don't let it go by the wayside.
