buying online refund rights

hi

i bought and payed for what i thought was an hawaiian shirt from a fancy dress shop online on the 28/8/09 and received the item on the 2/9/09 when i open it was not a shirt but material that is made to look like a shirt, something that you just pull over your head. when i contact the shop by email that evening, explaining that i want to return the item as i didnt realise that it wasnt an actual shirt. below is the email that i received back today 3/9/09

(Hi, you can bring it to the shop or post the item out for a credit note.

Hi
I emailed you to let you know that I would be returning the item that I received from you as it was not an Hawaiian shirt but material made to look like a shirt, you have emailed be back to say that I can return the item and I will get a credit note, but I believe that I am entitled to a full refund, not a credit note, under the Distance Selling Regulations.

thanks Cathy
