Idea about Revenge against AU?

Ok, I just had this thought. I have no idea if it is reasonable or not, but it sounds like it may be a good way to get revenge against AU, if not your money or bonus materials:
Chargebacks cost the company money, correct? Why don't we all go and buy one comic. Wait until it clears on your card. Then email and try to call AU and cancel the order. Document these emails. Then, dispute the charge with your bank after a week of no reponse from them.
Since it will have only been a short time, your bank should return the money no problem. Then AU has to pay because they've had another chargeback against them. If enough people do this, it would be sure to put them under completely. No credit card company would give them a business account ever again.
What's everyone's thoughts on this? Is it just crazy?
