Even if you were correct in your assumption that Fictionwise have paid the distributor, I think good customer service would require a refund.

But I suspect that Fictionwise don't pay the distributor until the file is downloaded - they do not cache encrypted files from the distributors when a sale is made (or else there wouldn't be this problem).

Of course, I don't actually know what the arrangements are between fictionwise and its distributors. But I'd be surprised if fictionwise has agreed to pay distributors for files it never receives.
