skiP.E.I.The branding graphics under the foot don't always line up, so don't go by that. I've almost messed up a mount by lining up with the logo thinking it would be in precisely the same place on both skis.
The mount lines are a little more concerning, but it looks like a fairly miniscule difference. Before you take any action, click your boots in and see if you can detect any movement laterally or vertically in either binding, or if they are visibly different when engaged. Better yet, put your boots on and click in, wiggle the skis, rock back and forth and see if one foot feels any more loose.
This is kind of a tough thing to comment on without seeing the skis in person. Sometimes shops will have older jigs that have some play in them so mistakes can happen. It looks like your bindings are a bit worn, so there could also be a little play in the plate of the binding itself if you've used them.
Either way, it's unlikely the shop would agree to buy new skis, and if there is any difference between the bindings it will likely be too small to notice. It still could be worth following up with them, they may give you store credit or something.
I have a pair of beater skis where one is mounted an inch further forward because of a tear out and I barely notice a difference.
