I got 6 of mine today, but of the 15 i ordered, i was told that only 11
shipped... i've so far been charged the full $20 shipping, and i've
still got a few yet to be sent... I hope i don't get charged any
additional shipping.

fyi, my first 6 arrived in 6 separate boxes, of 3 different sizes... a
couple of which were definetly large enough to hold 2 of the buckets
each :/

All came off the same line at the same location, but five different (...) (26 years ago, 24-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
