I just payed for three 4 pound packages for spring 2009. April 11 is my pickup date. Woohoo! If my hive overwinters well I'll have 4 hives in '09 (maybe more if I can trap some swarms).
go for it and good luck!
Do you mind my asking the price?

Yeah, I ordered a package of Russians from them a couple of weeks ago. Driving down to pick them up May 11, when is your pickup date? I only ordered on because I'm planning on splitting my existing colony and providing a Caucasian queen for the split. I may steal a couple frames from my existing hive(minus the bees) for the package to help them get off and running though.
