Duplicate Location Error

I have a really strange problem when uploading locations through the AdWords Editor. I will upload a batch of 1,000 locations (either ZIPs or a mix of ZIPs and radii with coordinates). When I do "Check Locations", a whole bunch of them come up as duplicates, and neither one of them will upload.
