I think you should cut that bag open, remove the extra 3.3 ounces of down they gave you, and send it back to WM with a nasty note demanding your money back.

10 ounces.  It  replaces my 6'6" 15 degree 2 pound bag.  Saving 6
ounces and giving up only a slight amount of warmth looked good to me.

Thing is, the WM bag weighs one pound, 13.3 ounces. Less than half the
weight savings I expected.  This pisses me off.

So the moral is:  Don't trust; verify.
