This sounds like a typical Small Claims Court matter - relatively fast, cheap and easy - but you may have problems with proof of the facts if it's your word against the store's. Hopefully you have a receipt or the like with a serial number, so the actual machine you were sold can be proven to the judge's satisfaction. Have you tried just returning it? If you sue, buy and read a self-help paperback book on California Small Claims procedures.
