I have purchased a set of apprently "original" PU's ripped from an American
Standard Stratocaster 2005 model.

They all look the same, same pole distance and same polarity (magnetic and
electrical)!

How did you check polarity? If they're not in the guitar, hold the
magnets of two pickups together, top-to-top. The neck and bridge
pickups should oppose each other. The neck + middle should attract,
and so should the bridge + middle.

Is that what you did to check them?
