Got screwed, what can I do?

I bought 2 sets of comps (hifonics zeus) form my local "audio shop". They set them up for free so I figured "eh, why not?" After a couple days of playing, the mids all went within about 15 minutes. Just random. Not even loud. Then my tweeter started smoking, (which I didnt think was possible). I went back and they said they would look at them and to come back in a couple of days for a replacment. When I went back the said they have never seen me, never sold the speakers to me, and never installed them. These are the same people that are trying to sell a Solo X 12 as "new, just broken in" when I know it has had 6 cones in it. What can I do about my comps? I have no receipt or proof of purchase.

Guessing there not a member of the BBB.

never recomending them to anyone you know is a start.
