- Go with the credit card company. If you received something you didn't order
- (and especially if they refuse to take it back) the credit card company
- will credit your account and then do a chargeback to the company, and the
- company will have to prove they sent you what you ordered.

- I ordered a mini-tower computer case from them on their insistance that
- a full size motherboard would fit in it. (The salesperson was not very
- helpful). It didn't. I was able to exchange it though.
-
- Situations like these are compelling reasons to use ONLY a credit card
- with all mail-order transactions.
