Default Wife bought me the wrong arrows

I asked for some new arrows this year for Christmas. I have been shooting 24" Carbon Express 45/60 Terminator Selects and I like them. I wrote down what I needed and told my wife to take one of my arrows with her if she bought them so they could be cut to length. I have exactly one CX200 arrow in with my others and she picked it to take with her! [:'(]

It wasn't her fault, but they cut the new arrows to length and then, when she heard the price was $23.00 more than I told her they would be, she noticed what I had written down. The guy at the shop said to see if I could make them work and if I couldn't maybe we could "work something out."

My question is this, should I go to the trouble of fletching a couple to see if I can make them work? I know the one arrow I have (same length) shoots higher than my others, but I KNOW I'm gonna lose out if I go back to the shop. I'd be lucky to get an even trade and that would mean I'd lose $23.00 my wife paid over the price she would have paid.

My set-up is a Hoyt Razortec set at 70-lbs and a 27" draw length. Should the CX200's shoot the same . . . or should I just "suck it up" and make the exchange?
