Can you beat this??

Today went to Wix's to buy a half sheet of 18mm ply. As a precaution I always run my metal detector over it as a precaution.
My sign of something foreign, while ripping into useable portions my feed went into instantly stop don't go pass go look at a jail term. Ran the metal detector over it again to see why I stripped some teeth of the blade still no clue.

So in breaking off the portion of ply I find a chunk of glass embedded in between the 3rd and 4th layers similar
to the thickness of a window. I won't relay the crap answer I got, but they did change the sheet, and then informed me they metal scan every sheet of MDF and ply.

Have they got a special glass detector in their warehouse??

I'd show them my saw blade and ask them to pay for a repair/replacement.
