Kate, I also ordered from Bill the last two years and got wonderful bulbs, and I won some in the photo contest last fall, too. But to be honest I'm not sure I got confirmation from my order, either. I ordered this year's bulbs before New Years so I'll have to go back and check. * edited to add* I did get a confirmation e-mail from them.
He said above that he is trying to launch a new website, so that may explain a glitch or two.
But, I wouldn't worry. You will get a big box of fat sassy bulbs some time in late Feb. or March. Have faith.
