Legislation regarding online purchasing.

Hi, I recently was shopping online and noticed something which was quite cheap so i put x amount into my shopping cart and made the purchase. I was then sent an automated invoice stating my order number etc...later that day i recieved an email from the company saying that they had mispriced the items on the site and that they cannot sell at the price i purchased for? Where do i stand?
P.S. I have actually been charged for the goods, the money was taken from my bank account today. They say that it is not a binding purchase until they send the goods to me, i thought it was binding at the time they accept payment?
Thanks

Provide a linky to the website if you're not sure.

I placed the order two days ago, and my available balance was reduced.
They then told me the price was wrong which i disputed.
Then I checked my balance today and the money has been taken.
