It seems like he should have e-mailed you and let you tell him what you wanted to do.

That's what I figured. I had ordered mine well in advance and he had promptly replied to thank me and say they were set aside with my name. So they were available then. Later we added more for other members but within the time limit specified. First I heard of the substitutions was when he was handing them over, and he didn't say I could refuse them or anything. But I didn't ask because I had no idea what other members would want to do with the substitutions. Oh well, a small problem in the big scheme of things.
