If you talk it over with
them, they will likely give you the present brick job for free, just
to not have to replace it.


*are you kiddin me................free



After all, it will cost them the loss of
all these bricks and the labor, PLUS the labor to remove them and
then the cost for the new bricks and labor.

*bricks can be re-sold and re-used
no loss except contractors labor.


Most contractors are not going to want to work with used brick and of
course they would be an odd number and might not match if you needed more
etc. The value of the used brick is not going to be equal to new and may
end up costing someone to just dump them, which is most likely.



Tell them you'll accept what
is there now as long as you are not charged.

*where the heck were you raised?
in the wilderness

Makes sense to me. That is the owner is not charged for the original
job. The contractor is going to end up eating more than the cost of the
original job if he has to replace it.




On the other hand, you might be a perfectionist and unless you get
the exact stuff you ordered,

*and why shouldn't the OP get what they ordered?

Because he now has a choice of getting what he ordered or saving some
real money.
