FVM wheelsets

I was wondering if this was a common issue or not.  I just got a bag of 100 axles from show in Altoona.  Now I'm guessing it was probably from the show circuit, packing and unpacking, being picked up, put down etc but I just finished swapping out axles and had at least 25-30 axles where the wheel was already off the axle or fell off when I tried to install it.

I have mentioned this before, but it bears repeating.  If you email or call FVM, they should replace those.  I had 9 bad ones in a bag of 100, and although they did not answer my email, about 2 weeks later, 9 replacements just showed up in the mail.

I shot them a message on FB.  I'm not looking for replacements unless these are going to cause me issues down the road with wheels falling off again.  Like I mentioned, I'm guessing the high number was due to the show circuit of the dealer packing and unpacking bag.  Going to be a real pain the a** if they are going to come off, as they were installed randomly as I found them, pressed wheel back on and installed.
