I think I've been scammed-->

I ordered some speakers over 3 weeks ago and get no response or e-mail from them. I've e-mailed them several times but no reply and there is no phone number/address on their website. I did get an order confirmation number but no shipping info.
I think I've been screwed and need some suggestions on what to do next. $135 bucks on my Visa card. Here's the url-->
http://audiovideoone.com

It seems you have been scammed, yes. That really blows.

What is the website of this particular company?

Scammed?

Was it like off E-Bay? Or a company website?
Did you get like a tracking number from FedEx or UPS?
Maybe they lost the package

call VIsa up and explain what has happened. put a halt on the charge. then when you do get the package ask for your shipping cost back!
