However, in an effort to assist you: I've had a look on the HMV website: and here are a few interesting points:

Unfortunately: the clauses in the T&Cs are mitigated by the words 'usually', 'we update our website asap', and of course, the fact that they state they do not take payment until your item has been despatched.

If it isn't in stock, it has not been despatched: which means they cannot refund you money that they 'claim' to have not taken from you (if they have not despatched the item).

It isn't much help tbh, but what it does say is that they cannot take money from your payment method if the item has not been despatched. This appears to be the only way you could 'get them' so to speak.
Yeah they have taken the cash including delivery charge but not shipped it so they have broke their terms and conditions there.
