Check with your card issuers legal dept.

It would appear from correspondences today that Egg will reimburse me since
I used their card over the Internet and have been ripped off as far as they
can see under the Sale Of Goods Act?

Do they then try and reclaim it themselves?

Don't hold your breath. I'm still waiting to get �300+ back from egg 
which was debited to my card when someone decided to go shopping with in 
on Jungle.com.

Probably, and they have a much better legal department to threaten
with than you do :-)

As the other poster said, don't hold your breath.  Why?  Cos you have
bought a 'good' you've bought a service.  The sale of goods act doesn't
apply (different rules do).

Sale of goods act 1979 covers the supply of both goods and services.
