1. I presume the the tables were from Cosco, a division of Dorel Industries?

They're no relation to Costco. They make plastic goods and baby gear like strollers and car seats.

3. I didn't mean to imply that you are

People make that mistake a lot, Cosco makes tables so it was worth checking.

Strange.

5. I thought Costco was a retail company.

When did they start a table manufacturing company? It sounds as if you may not be retarded nor illiterate. It seems as if you may have been human and made a mistake.

6. But really I didn't.

I'm not saying they're manufacturing...I'm saying there's something with their name on it at walmart.

7. So Wal-Mart is fencing stolen goods now?

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if they were...

8. Good News!! Probably not!

Costco sells an assortment of goods, it's true, but sells them all under the name "Kirkland." (Inasmuchas the whole Costco phenomenon started in Kirkland, Washington.)

I'm not sure who would make a table with 'Costco's' name on it, but it likely wasn't the Costco we all know and love.
