If it were me, I wouldnt walk away - but then I like a challenge. You could file a suit pretty cheaply and without all the headaches associated with with a typical case by filing in small claims. When I was in law school, I took a Legal Clinic for the Elderly course and sued a door to door salesmen (insert jokes here)and his company under NC's Unfair and Deceptive Trade statute in small claims court (you will need to file your own complaint rather than using the standard small claims form that most use) - it was reached very quickly and settled due to the presence of the the UDT claim (which provides treble damages to the prevailing plaintiff) - the magistrate was actually upset that it settled since, according to him, he never gets to hear such claims. This would put you on "equal footing" with reggie and company - just make sure your damages are within the jurisdictional limits.
