Sep 25, 2018 at 20:41 comment added Iñaki Viggers @Guido Kudos to you! I'm happy to hear that you didn't let those people defraud you, and that you achieved that without an attorney (outside the judicial underworld or "court of justice").
Sep 25, 2018 at 19:53 comment added Guido After contacting them with a pretty assertive email, they've agreed to return my deposit and not charge the extra amount. Undoubtedly, having read your comments helped a lot in me knowing my rights and possible courses of actions, which reflected in the email. Thanks everyone, and Iñaki in particular, for helping out. I'm deeply grateful I didn't have to go through hell to fix this up!

Sep 25, 2018 at 12:56 comment added Iñaki Viggers @Guido As for contacting a lawyer, keep in mind what I said in the sense that parties cannot be represented in Small Claims court. Thus, you might end up paying a significant portion of your refund (assuming the court decides fairly, which sometimes is a big "if") for the useless service by some lawyer.
Sep 25, 2018 at 2:29 comment added Guido Thank you everyone. I'll first reply to them and see if they back down, before contacting a lawyer and all that. (If this is something stupid to do, please tell me :) )
Sep 24, 2018 at 6:26 comment added davidgo Depending where in the US, I'd imagine many small claims courts would allow remote parties to appear via teleconference, so you may want to check if yours does.
