Still waiting here, buying more Syqt if it dips any lower.

Was just reading about the mistake in price, and i have a similiar product mistake that i need some help on:
In a mag issue of Tiger Direct(havent checked there web yet), I ordered a Quantum Hard drive , was pg 51(more Qntm drives on pg52) item # A113-9020_4.3 GB EIDE Mode4 11msec 16.5 MB/S 4500 rpm 128 KB 3.5` 3yr warranty_ for $299.99!
Now, what i received was (on packing slip/receipt) states: Item# A113-9020 3.2GB Quantum FireBall Hard Drive $299.99.
I called them that evening(Last nite) and they said it was an error in the mag.(I see there FireBall on the next pg52 listed there ,but the specs were not all the same.
Since i called at night i was told to call during the day.Couldnt get to call today. Wondering what i should say to get something out of this? I want a 4.3 gb for $299 as advertised,I see 2 other 4.3 drives at the prices of $359.99(15ms ,slower then the 3.2) and there BigFoot 4.3GB (13ms, a little faster) for $369.99. Should i demand one of those for $299.99?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Tim
