    King cups are identical & can be run upside down without problem, if it annoys you surely you can take it to them & get them to put them the other way up. I can't see that they can charge you any money if they made the mistake.

    if it's bugging you (it would me!) take it back and get them to do it right and ask them to make the king words match up too. i don't think it's ocd, just neat and tidy :)
