Tom Servo, I am not an attorney, but I would think the approach would be:

I could have bought elsewhere for $900.

Dick's only wanted $850, so I bought from them, not the other seller.

Dick's took my money; a contract was made.

Now, Dick's has refunded my money, but breached the contract; other sources now cost $1300. Dick's breach cost me $400, so I want $400 plus court costs.
