Pawn Shop Advice

Hello guys, I need help/advice

A couple of months ago, I went into a pawnshop and they had an item I wanted so I put it on layaway. Not even a few weeks after I went back and basically took the item out. To my knowledge I was paying off the complete amount I owed towards it. Some time this week I received a call from the pawn shop stating that I still owed an amount on it, the worker took the fault in stating that he did not charge me the full amount. When looking at my bank statements he indeed only charged me a an amount less than what I originally owed. Since it is his fault and he took the blame, and you cannot take a layaway item out till fully payed, Am I required to go back and pay off the amount? Or can they dispute it since it was their fault and it’s been a couple months after ?

extra info: The item has been in my possession since, and i’ve gone back to that same pawn shop and not once did they mention this till this week.

ANY ADVICE WILL HELP
