The Bitcoin that you paid for are now at the address which you provided to btc-e.com; you cannot retrieve them and btc-e will not issue you a refund for them, nor should they.

In future copy and paste your BTC address or use a Bitcoin address shortener such as btc.to and copy and paste that address, verifying that the first 5 characters, middle 5 characters and last 5 characters match the ones you copied to the clipboard.

Sounds like the address you provided was no good so your coins were not gone.....are you Irish? because you are lucky. Good way to start the new year.
