You haven't ordered ones which are too narrow, ie your trying to fit 10sp quick links to a 9 sp chain, they simply wont go. If they are the correct speed its just the same as the link which came with the chain.

Here's a tip on splitting your new chain, just in case you do what I done and make it to short 
When you screw the splitter in to the pin, don't push the pin completely out all the way. Leave the pin on the outer part of the link, it is MUCH easier for when you want to add the link back to make the chain the proper length

It's not so much the money...I enjoy finding out how/why things work the way they do and how to maintain them.
Excellent, send the cash you save to me.
Fixing your bike yourself, and doing a good deed. What could be better?
No, they were literally identical, 10 spd links, same brand, same colour. Just would not close.

I'm baffled
Ive extended a 10sp chain with an additional quick link no problem.

Test ride complete. No clicking. Stood up on the pedals and really powered it - no give. Looking forward to the commute tomorrow morning. Missed it!!
