No solution short of

"we're very sorry, Mr. Fritz for our error. Please
send the parts back to us freight collect and we will
refund your money, or send you the CORRECT parts with
no additional shipping charges on your part. We look
forward to your continued business. Thank you for
shopping Jameco"

I once got a wrong part from MPJA and they sent me the
correct one, and told me to keep the wrong one because
it was not worth the expense of sending it back !!!

BTW... ask them if the 6mm wrench is a fit for a 1/4"
nut !!!
