- n***n (205)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseFabulous transaction! Each glass was wrapped in a ton of bubble wrap, and they were all very well packed with extra cushioning in the box. All glasses are an excellent condition and as described in the listing, and shipping was super quick. I initially had thought that shipping was a bit on the high side, but with as much time and care that was taken to wrap these to ensure safe arrival, the shipping cost was warranted. Thanks so much for an excellent experience!
