Refused to refund my $400 deposit

I registered with the site www.createmytattoo.com and created a contest for users to draw tattoo ideas for me and I would pick on and my $400 deposit would be the prize for which ever tattoo i picked. After the 7 day contest was over a lot of artists said they hadnt been able to finish and they asked me to ask the owners of the site to extend the contest. I asked them and they allowed it and the contest went on for an extra 7 days. No new designs were submitted so at the end of the contest I told the site owners I did not wish to choose a winner and I would like my deposit back since I could not choose a drawing that I liked. They told me the terms of use state that all requests for refunds had to be requested within 7 days of the end date of the contest. And since my contest was extended that was pretty much impossible unless I requested a refund before the end of the extension. I emailed them a few times back and forth and they kept saying this same thing and sending links to their terms of us and user agreement. I told them it didnt matter because my contest was extended so the 7 days after the contest couldnt apply to me. I went months with out hearing from them so I decided to email them yesterday and they responded and said they sent me 4 emails saying I needed to choose a winner and since I never did within the 30 days the gave me my deposit is lost and the contest was closed and deleted. Basically they get to keep my money and I get nothing. I told them I was contacting my lawyer if they did not refund my money and that I would not come for my $400 I would come for $400,000 and that did nothing but get another email linking to their terms of use and user agreement.
