Seller's got good feedback & folks seem to buy things in multiples. Just be aware that when it says "15 available", you are not buying the puffer in the picture - you are buying one like it. If you can roll with buying something relatively 'sight-unseen', I say go for it! And I'm not sure why the seller is advertising the same sizes in different colors. Unless they are somehow painted or something, the color of the puffer depends on the color of the bulb inside! And - what's up with those lips?
