Havertown, PA asked in Consumer Law for Pennsylvania

Q: I made an online purchase for baseball tickets from SeatGeek using my credit card. Immediately after I made the purchase

I tried to cancel it but could not contact anyone and they did not respond to my emails other than to say all sales are final. The credit card ruled in their favor. I thought in pa. you had 3 days to cancel a purchase. https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/LI/uconsCheck.cfm?txtType=HTM&yr=1968&sessInd=0&smthLwInd=0&act=387&chpt=0&sctn=7&subsctn=0 While it was in dispute, the credit card persons kept reassuring me that I would not lose my $429.00. I think that was because English was a second language for them, or they just didn't want me to be upset. what recourse do I have
