Question About Newegg and UPS

[GeeFizzleDizzle]

OK...I just ordered 4 case fans and a 1GB dual channel memory kit and it was shipped out to me yesterday by UPS.

Now I just received the UPS tracking number in an email and when I check it on the UPS website it shows that my package weighs 18 pounds...WTF!? How do 4 case fans and a couple sticks of memory weigh 18 pounds!?

Should I be worried?

Is the location it's being sent to correct?
Are you certain it isn't 1.8?
Did you get any free crap with it?

Wait and see, I guess.

That you got a whole bunch of free stuff? NO!

To Injury,
I just re-checked it and the delivery location is not shown on the UPS tracking info and it is definitely 18 pounds and not 1.8 pounds. Also, I'm pretty sure there's nothing free I'm supposed to receive other than some lame Newegg sticker.

To QurazyQuisp,
If that happens then cool but what I'm worried about is receiving the wrong stuff altogether and the hassle that will entail with Newegg.

something thats 18lbs should probably be worth more than 4 case fans and ram

They're probably wrong. I think those mistakes happen often.

Probably so but when the fans and RAM are what I desperately need at the moment and if the more valuable item is not something I can use then I have to pay to ship it back to Newegg...
