If it was marketed as a numbers matching rifle you do have a valid complaint. I will say when I usually try to sell rifles that have some collector value, I offer a three business day inspection no questions asked refund minus shipping costs back to me. However, if you fill out a form 4473 then it's your rifle to keep, even if you decide you don't want it.
As to value, I couldn't say if it's worth half or not. I would say if you were buying it as an investment you should have asked more questions since this seems like an online deal, just by the premis of your question. If it was local and you paid the money without thoroughly inspecting as much as possible, I'd say the rifle is yours.
