Matus,
When you place an order and the company runs your credit card they are charged for the transaction. The cost can be anywhere from 2.5% to 4.5%. This is based on my experience here in the USA. I don't know what the fees are there, probably the same or higher since they are handled by the same clearing house here.
When you cancel the order and they run the credit card they are charged a second time.

Why do you expect them to shell out all of that money for nothing?
The stores that do that are uping their prices accross the board to cover these costs.
Their credit card policy is one of the ways they keep their costs so low.

Give 'em a break,
