Chrome Head Nuts Stripping

The other day I went to re-torque the head nuts and a few of them just would not tighten and I thought "O" no please don't tell me it stripped in the block. So I pull the nut off and found that the actual threads in the nut were stripped.

These nuts were purchased from vendor "M" has anyone else run into this problem?

Luckily I had the set that I took of originally and clean them up and reused them.
