I took a chance and bought 2 corals off ebay. I paid $36 for both of them and the kicker was FREE shipping lol. I knew I was taking a chance...

Today I randomly checked my mailbox (I usually do it once a week) and low and behold there are the corals! In 37 degree weather WITH cold packs! Because you know... Only the cool kids send corals with cold packs to Vermont in the middle of December...Turns out they actually arrived yesterday and have been in my mailbox over night. I think it got to like 15 degrees last night lol

Taking bets on whether they make it or not.

For what they went through those look pretty good. I'd be willing to bet they make it and that the seller won't get positive feed back. Cold packs... really...wow?
Good luck at least you didn't take an expensive chance
 
From what it looks like, I assume they might make it but only time will tell. LOL
 
Here's food for thought. Ice is about 32F and the outside temp was 15F. The Icepack acted like an insultor relative to the outside temp. Like an Igloo to a eskimo. HMMMM Good Luck
