Which cactus?

I bought this one thinking that it was a Trelocactus hastifer, which, after getting home and researching a bit; I realize that it is certainly NOT what I thought it was, So ...
What is it?

Looks like some Notocactus (Parodia) young plants.
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.
°C = (°F - 32)/1.8

Looks about right
Someone else suggested that hey might be sun starved seedlings of Echinocereus pectinatus or Echinocereus rigidissimus which also seems plausable

Thanks
