The end result, is that he walked away with $100 more spending power than he went in with.

Uh, no he didn't, assuming that what he wanted to purchase was still an AR. They inflated more than $100 between the time the store entered a CONTRACT and when they welched. So he HAS been damaged.

You really can’t lose something that you never had, no matter how much you wanted it, or was promised.

He "had it" in the legal sense, in the sense that he'd entered into a contract to purchase it. Are you saying if you negotiate a really good price on a car and you and the dealer sign a contract, it's kosher for the dealer to back out by refunding your money and giving you a Benjamin, just because he negotiated a deal that turned out to be bad for him? Obviously not. A deal's a deal.

Damaged, really? The only thing that happened was that he didn’t get a good deal on a purchase...that’s nothing more than arriving too late for a great black friday sale. Plus, he got a $100 gift certificate. How damaging is that?

You really don’t think the shooting in CT constitutes an extenuating circumstance for the management to make a decision like that over? It’s not like they just up and changed their mind over a whim.
