cheated by jeweller in celuk, bali

hello there,
i visited a reputed jeweller in celuk last week and bought a gold
necklace worth 2.6 million rupiah or around 280 USD for my wife.
The jeweller told me that the necklace was 22 kt gold and weighed almost
10 gms. I paid the whole amount in cash and bought it over to singapore
where i live.

Since then, my wife wore the necklace once and she started to feel
uncomfortable and itchy. I took this to a reputed local jewellery store
for a valuation and what they told me was that it is gold of a very bad
quality and they would not even buy it. And it weighs only around 7.5
gms. After much insistence, they told me that it was below 14kt.

This is shocking because i repeatedly asked the person serving me about
the caratage and weight and they even gave me a receipt for the same
with 22kt gold written on it.

Can you please let me know what/who i should talk to and recover my money?

thank you very much
srini
