Columbia House Music Scam ripoff consumer fraud ripoff New York New York

I responded to a Columbia House Music Internet Ad and had a similar experience regarding expensive shipping and long delays in delivery. In addition, I was NEVER billed for my initial offer package. Then several months later received a large bill from collection agency for the initial amount plus the cost of covering my membership obligation to purchase more CDs ($125). Of course, the toime period I hjad to purchase tjose CDs was not even close to being up. I was never sent the original or larger adjusted bill by Columbia House. But even if I had received it, I think that what they are doing is probably illegal.
Any comments?
