Hi Meagan-I'll fix your lamp. I won't charge if you'll share a portion of goo with me. Send me a message here, and we'll go from there....

Hi Meagan-It will be less expensive to jus buy a new lava lamp. If you prefer to repair, you're going to have to order a goo kit. So, think about it. If you still want to repair, I'll let you know what it will cost for the kit and postage to & from me. But as I said, a new lamp is your most cost effective choice.

PS-There are homemade formulas, but I've never worked with those and really have no idea about how good they are or how long they last. Goo kit re-do is the best repair option, in my opinion.

You can view their other items too. You'd probably have no trouble repairing it yourself! The directions are simple, and Dr. What has a "Goo Kit Tutorial" posted on this site to help people.
