    No, if it was paid for on a CC, then they have to return it to the CC.

    If they don't have the TV, or similar, then they as are refunding the money, you will be back in the original position as before buying TV, so I cannot see that you can do anything re the store, you will have to ,look elsewhere for a TV.

    Put your query on THIS thread, were you will find Art gives excellent information.
