Are you certain of this though? I don't know how the record stores handle it, but if their stuff is primarily being handled through their own distributor (i.e. a store sends an order to their own distributor, then gets the mdse from said distributor), again, they may not get this information, or it will trickle down poorly.
I have to agree with juju on this one. But truth be told, if I were still a retail manager, I'd probably take it back. However dham, you're contradicting yourself. You specifically said you're willing to make a scene, but then you're talking about being firm and polite. So, are you saying that if firm and polite doesn't work, you would make a commotion over a $17 CD?
