because they were supposed to be "Made in USA."

Just got them today and they are actually made in China. Not assembled in the USA or any other derivative of "Made in USA." I am so disappointed and frustrated right now. The ATG Stores customer rep I spoke with tried to convince me that only a portion had to be of actual USA origin to make that claim. I let her know that that was incorrect according to the FTC. She then stated she was not going to argue with me which she should not have done to start with in my opinion.

"What is the standard for a product to be called Made in USA without qualification?
For a product to be called Made in USA, or claimed to be of domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be "all or virtually all" made in the U.S. The term "United States," as referred to in the Enforcement Policy Statement, includes the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories and possessions.
What does "all or virtually all" mean?
"All or virtually all" means that all significant parts and processing that go into the product must be of U.S. origin. That is, the product should contain no — or negligible — foreign content."
long story short, I am getting a full refund but still do not have any lights for my new workbench.
