Efaucets.com Or Eimprovements.com I placed an cancelled an online order within 10 minutes, they charged me a "cancellation" fee of 5% for nothing! Racine Wisconsin

I had construction going on at my house and I needed a certain faucet ASAP. I ordered a faucet on their online store. Their website states that orders typically ship within 24-48 hours of receipt of an order. I called within 10 minutes of placing the order to check when the order would be shipped. The customer service woman said that the faucet was not in stock and it would take 4-6 weeks for delivery.

I then immediately cancelled the order stating that I could not wait that long to receive my order. She said that she would cancel the order and that my credit card would not be charged. I called again later that same day to confirm the order was cancelled. The next day I received an email stating that I was being charged a 5% cancellation fee.

I responded and said that I was told that I would not be charged anything since nothing was done on my order. They then said that they had put my order on a truck and had to remove it and put it back into inventory, when I said that I was told the faucet was not even in stock, they said that they had to charge me because they processed the charge and refund on my credit card and there were fees associated with that. When I called my credit card company and confirmed there were no charges associated with that, they then said that I cancelled the order because I found it cheaper elsewhere, which was another false statememt that they made up.

I have all this documented in emails back and forth. I did find the faucet in stock at another company, but paid the exact same price - so if they would have had it in stock I would not have cancelled the order. I think they are trying to scam me out of $13.85 - it is not a large amount, but I am not paying it on principle. They did absolutely nothing and should not get paid for that.
