How much did she charge and how much was she charging for pups with larger predictions? I would probably be a little frustrated with a breeder that had made a surcharge for something that was not so. You know now that no one can predict the size but a first time buyer usually does put some trust in the breeder. I did too. ]

My first Yorkie came from an individual selling her pet "due to health reasons." I was misled a bit there but you usually expect an experienced breeder to know more and maybe be more forthcoming. That was the case when I bought the two puppies I have now. Both breeders knew a lot more and gave me tons of information, about the breed and their lines. They gave me good info and did not try to misrepresent anything.

So, if you really feel the breeder misled you and want to appproach her at least to let her know what you think of her business ethics -- go for it. But most sales contracts say they do not guarantee size so you may not see any rebate $$. In the meantime, enjoy your Yorkie -- I bet yours will not get very large and you will be so in love, size won't matter.
