I had the same thing happen with a CL ad posted by a pawn shop, advertising a set of forstner bits and call them HS drill bits.

I had the same thing happen recently with a seller selling a shaper as a router table. On the other hand, they had it priced like a shaper- a very expensive shaper

hey, you must have had dealings with government supply troops, if the paperwork says it's a drill press, it's a drill press.  When I was deployed to Desert Storm, we ordered a bulldozer and got a tank instead.  Suitable sub.  Only problem is, they didn't have the bulldozer attachment and nobody could drive it very well. I have a picture of it somewhere, they put it by the entrance gate guard shack, mostly as a joke.

They're right... it's for drilling square holes.

I have seen where the company would not buy computers.  However, there was not a problem with purchasing electronic mathematical processing equipment, or something similar. 

Yep, looks like a drill press to me :-)

Yup, and they also call a Bosch slider compound miter saw a "table saw."  Idiots.

You would have thought in five day's time they could have verified your observation.
