BTW, here is an example of a lamp that is misrepresented. It says its from the '60s. The '60s had a different kind of box. This lamp was made in the late '80s.<br />

Not worth the $115 they're asking. I'd say maybe $70-80 because like you said the flowers aren't original.

<p>Do you think that planter the yellow one is worth the $115 with the cracked lid ? Im wondering if that planter was redone liquid wise and the person put the cap on too tight and cracked it.. I dunno, Keith here on these forums thinks the plant isnt original either.</p>

<p>I kinda regret not getting the 98 one, this is the one.. 98 is a special year for me.. my dad died from cancer when i was 12 in 1998..

That's another beauty. Mid '70s again. I'd try and replace that cracked cap though if I got it. Do you have any interest in the '90s lamps? I'm referring mostly from '92-95 because those lamps, in my opinion were refined versions of their '70s counterparts.

<p>Yea im trying to get it, the seller is an complete asshole though.. I asked if i could buy it for 60$ she goes sure, remakes the ad for 60 and then when i try to buy it it says she blocked me from bidding and buying from her.. I ask her and she blows up crying over how she wont make any money off it, thats the last time she helps a friend and then takes the thing off and puts it back up for auction... </p>

<p>That really iritates me because i want this lamp badly... I almost didnt wanna link it here so i dont have to compete with other bidders... raising the price too high.. I had to make a new ebay name to get around her from blocking me.. What a JERK !!</p>
