Ive been watching them carefully the last couple days and even tho its hard to tell { for me }but i think you are right ,they had to have mixed up the labeling on them.
Thanks,for confirming it.

no problem bro. this species is easily confused all the time, especially to the untrained eye. its also common for exporters/importers to mislabel. sometimes to make more money, sometimes they just dont know themselves. looks like a great pick up 4 u goliath and vittatus.
