<p>Its ok. they were only 50$ not 200+ like the others on ebay. The brown one has the rubber for the legs. But part of the plastic is missing where the globe sits in. Im not picky about fluid quality lol. I just think its cool to own a peice of history from the USSR.</p>

<p>I jusy hope customs doesnt destroy them. They destroyed my grandmas urn whwn it was mailed from germany.. Even though its against the law to open urns they did anyway. As for flakes sitting. The white one…</p>

<p>Nice lamps, but the fluid isn't great quality. The movement is very sluggish with a lot of flake just sitting on the bottom.</p>
<p>I got one once that worked really well, until I realised that it had a 70w bulb in it lol</p>
<p>Kirk replaced the fluid in one of the the 'witches hat' models (the 2nd picture you posted) for me about 6 years ago, and that has been running beautifully ever since.</p>

<p>I ordered the top brown/redish one and the bottom one with the lamp shade thing, i guess the ones you have. I dont like the middle one. Only paid $90 for both, I just hope U.S customs doesnt destroy my lamps and break them purposly like i know they love doing.</p>

<p>When my grandma died years ago in germany her ashes were mailed to me in a URN i picked out and customs opened it and destroyed the Urn, disrespectful jerks</p>

<p>I'm not that into glitters although I have several. But not enough to pursue lamps like this, so I've never really thought about them.</p>
