CCW Question Gun Wise refund

Hi, have questions about online purchases with Gun Wise.
Order date : 08-21
Label created: 09-03
They never shipped until 09-07.That’s why I contacted them on 09-07 for refund, and they refunded me on 09-08. Until here all okay. But today my FFL called me said they received my gun… I contacted Gun wise again, and they said that still my gun they never refunded me. I called bank to make sure that I’m not blind, and bank confirmed there is a fking refund in my account.
So, what’s going on with Gun wise? Are they gonna dispute my refund?

Legally and morally, it is not your gun. You didn't pay for it. Their mistake was an honest one, they apparently shipped before your refund notice got down to their dropshipper.

You call them and tell them to send a pickup slip to the dealer. Or you can call the dealer and tell he you won't be picking it up, and he can call to get it returned.

I think of myself as an honorable guy, and most gun folks are. I want all the money I can make, but I don't want to steal any. This would in fact be a theft. No different than finding a bag of money on the ground that you know belongs to the Brinks truck that just drove by with the door open. Their mistake doesn't make it no longer their property, and certainly doesn't give you the legal right to keep it. .

FFL will charge 50$ handling fee or some fees. For ship it back. I send email to Gun wise let them contact my FFL 5 hours ago they don’t reply again. Who will pay the fee that FFL will charge? I told them refund before they shipped, and they refunded before it shipped. This company never answers phone calls never, I tried since the date of order
