I just made $202.78

Hi Guys.

last week I booked myself a trip to TLV with TK in J class via www.flightnetwork.com "Canada's No. 2 online travel agency"

anyways, I had been tracking prices for a couple days and it seemed as though I'd be paying $3292.80 for the trip. Fare basis J.
so on June 1st I log onto to flightnetwork, put in my search parameters prepared to whip out my amex and buy my flights, to my pleasant surprise (glitch or not, I dunno) the exact flights I was going to buy was showing at $3090.02. I thought to myself "hey this is awesome, let's book it"
So I pull the trigger and book the flights.
48 hours later I see a charge for $3292.80 on my amex "heyyyyy, what's this?"
So I call flightnetwork and politely ask if they knew why I might have been over charged, the friendly rep put me on hold for about 5 mins and returned to inform me that "It's all good sir, it was our mistake and I've already sent through a fare difference refund request for you"


Fine by me, I'll take the savings. I just can't really understand how this happened. I even checked TK's website right after booking with flightnetwok to confirm the price was not cheaper, it wasn't it was $3292.80....

I confirmed that I didn't purchase a consolidated fare either. So thanks for your mistake flightnetwork
