I ordered live worms. The website had a .ie address so it wasn't until after they were shipped that I realised that they shipped from the UK (I live in the R of Ireland). I recieved an email to say that they had shipped on the Wed before a bank holiday weekend. They arrived on the Tuesday after the weekend packed in AIRTIGHT plastic bags. Half were dead. I contacted customer service. They told me that the worms were shipped on Tuesday and whatever happened after that was the fault of the postal service. Shipping was E14 approx. There are cheaper ways to aquire dead worms.
