I bought two boxes of three bulbs which arrived on time and all six bulbs lit up immediately and were bubbling happily very soon. The liquid filling in the hoses was high and even for everyone, so there was no leakage at all. The boxes had the Celebration burgundy graphic design rather than the Celebrations box design shown in the listing - this packaging has a good design that keeps the three bulbs very well and separated from each other - there is no rattling and the box should do quite a bit in transit be crushed to resist damage. The two boxes were packaged together in a large bubble bag, with each box also individually wrapped in bubble wrap, and the boxes were crisp and square so the packaging and shipping (at least this time) worked very well. They only arrived yesterday so can't comment on reliability but so far I'm very happy and have bought two more boxes. Just a note on the bulbs themselves - the three bulbs packaged in each box were the exact color shown in the photo so no complaints either - got what I ordered. The bubbles in the blue liquid bulb aren't just eye-catching for the color, and the bulbs with bright yellow bases look great but aren't particularly Christmassy compared to the red-green version with an amber tube. (which looks spectacular).
