I received my flags (1500) in three boxes. They were packed in bundles of 10 however, the boxes were tight lengthwise. I recieved my flags with most of the plastic tips off of the flags! If I had less it wouldn't be such a big deal but I have to go through 1500 flags, find the tips and try to re-apply them. Company said they were just put on with pressure so I hope that works and I don't have to resort to glue or....... I have to pay to have the stickers/cards put on as ell and this just added to the cost of the prep. I'm also fearful some of the tips may have fallen out of the openings of the shipping boxes. The company did, however, send me 50 more just in case. The 50 arrived fully intact!
