I ordered pool supplies. Received a weird box from fedex. Only has my name and address and “relabel due to barcode”. No pool supplies.

But had 6 saw blades. Masonry/concrete blades. Hilti 14” Equidist blades. Quick google finds them for 199-220 bucks. I have 6! All new in plastic.

Tried to do the tight thing and contact fedex and company who we bought pool stuff from. No idea who the seller of the blades is. Zero info on the box. We were told “disregard and discard” wrong items.

What should I ask? Gonna throw them on Facebook etc. Is my price accurate for new? 200 bucks from a store like Home Depot?

Thanks.

You're lucky! I ordered some expensive saw blades and all I got was some crappy pool supplies.

That would be awesome.

From Amazon I ordered a Bosch Track Saw Package, that included the Plunge track saw and track.
I received the Saw but no track. So I called and they said because it came as a package, they couldn't just send the track but would have to send a whole package with saw and track.
Great news for me. So a few days later the original track showed up and then another saw and track showed up.
I got 2 track saw packages for the price of 1.

i had something similar one time with a walmart delivery. i had what had to be $3-500 in Redskin paraphernalia show up to my house right after they abandoned the name. somebody must have wanted to get all the stuff for when it's profitable to have the old name. i contacted walmart and fedex because this was obviously bought for nostalgia's sake but they couldn't track the order or why it came to me and just said keep it. being a cowboys fan...

i gave it to my friend from Virginia who is the lone washington fan i know.

Yeah, about right for mid-grade masonry blades for cutoff saws. Think the diamond blade on mine was $180 and a Shoxx 14" is closer to $300. I bet if you put them up for $150 each and hardscaper or concrete contractor would probably buy the lot.

Same exact thing happened to my buddy. He has two Bosch Track saws, too.

When they changed the name, I had just won my fantasy league and as a joke I bought a Guice jersey... about a week before the next season we found out about all the domestic abuse and rapings. Oops.

Nice! I ordered a box of pool shock from Amazon and received a 5gal bucket of 3” chlorine tabs instead.
