Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

I bought a Giant on the 30th of March and the seller has yet to ship. They then sent me an ebay message 10 days later asking for an additional 70$ for shipping. What do you think I should do? I would still like to obtain the lamp, but I feel like my money is being held hostage. 

Best,

Rory

So the lamp finally came in!

Ebay finally stepped in, we managed to adjust the initial invoice and the seller quickly shipped after settling on shipping.

The good news: its definitely a blue/white giant and it came with an original top! 

The bad news: the base came a little more dinged up than the seller showed in his photographs, and is surely more damaged than the "few dents that can definitely be hammered out" that he mentioned in the description. The globes is badly scratched in a few locations, and there is a slight leak from the seal on the top. On top of it all, the lamp is extremely cloudy from shipping. Its a project lamp for sure....

A metal shop can fix that base no problem, any pics of the globe? You can always buy a hikers water filter pump kit and filter it.

Agreed!

TIt is time to call eBay again and this time get a full refund for stupidity and carelessness.

Idiots like that shouldn't be selling if they cannot pack accordingly

My friend bought a Lunar from the UK

It arrived last week with a wet box- UGH! 

I've fixed Grande Bases several times with body filler and metal forming

Sorry to say, That one is toast
