Wickes kitchen quote

Hi all,
Back in April I got a quote from Wren which Wickes priced matched.
I was having some building work done and told the sales advisor I would put down a deposit in June. He said fine.
Went in at the weekend and he said the quote has expired and they want £700 more. They won't honour the price match as "Wren's prices may not be the same as they were 8 weeks ago".
I want the Wickes (Gower) kitchen but I'm not willing to pay any more than the original price match. Certainly not £700 for the same product 8 weeks later.
What are my options? Shall I try Benchmarx (they supply the same kitchen to the trade)? Or try elsewhere for a similar kitchen?
It's the Caledonia (white gloss without handles).

To update:
After a lot of hassle Wickes agreed on their original price match.
However, Benchmarx beat them by £200 and their units come pre-assembled (vs Wickes flat pack) & delivery within a week (Wickes 4 weeks).
