I just got an early Christmas present!

Well I found a seller listing bulbs on ebay starting at 99 cents. I guess not a lot of people where watching the auctions because I was able to "steal" a few for a buck! All in all I got 5 bulbs for 14 dollars. I honestly wasnt expecting much for the price, but the box arrived today and I was shocked! These were the healthiest and best shipped bulbs I have ever received. Take a look at the picture, they even put padding on the growth points to protect them! All in all I got a Temptation, Pamela, Dancing Queen, Red Nymph and a Rosalie for 14 bucks! Now lets just hope they are as labeled and it would be a dream come true. Just thought I would share my excitement with you all!

That's cool!!! I'm hoping they're as labeled, but if not, hopefully they'll still be neat ones that you'll enjoy!

They look exactly like the bulbs I got from Mclure and Zimmerman, packaged exactly the same way :)

It would be great if these are M and Z bulbs. I have had really good experiences with the health of their bulbs...just not true to color but always interesting and worth the time and money.
