Typically, anything I have ever ordered from Wayfair was well packed - always. But both bases were broken. They were packed separately. Neither was properly packed.  Need to use a lot of bubble wrap and line all sides of the boxes with thick styrofoam to allow no movement for impact. The bases will be resent on the 13th and estimated arrival is the 18th. Thank you for that. Additional comment: I got the bases and they arrived as scheduled. Perfectly packed. I remain pleased with everything about Wayfair. Again, thank you.
