I was looking at getting this, seems pretty cool to me, but I need some expert input. What do you think it's worth, is this a fair deal?
Also, here's an icon (?) that I was looking at too. again, is it worth it? I see there is a bit of interest. I saw another one that has a buy it now price of $170, which is way out of my price range...

yes, lol. I got a picture. it's a nice lamp, well worth the $7 he's asking for it.

k so is this the green tall plastic one with the peace sign on top ( if so i wrote them a few weeks ago ) I'm pretty sure its a chezzy china not a lava lite ceramic icon

[Cindy Bunn]

no, it's just a plain ole 32 oz. blue/white lava I believe. I'm trying to get the 32 oz ones together to make a display. Were the people you wrote to from des moines?

[Cindy Bunn]

ah, I'm seeing the one you are talking about if it's in Des Moines. Yeah, they never got back to me, but now I know not to bother : )

[wayne miller]

yeah the "peace" lamp is junk, when i first seen it i got all excited because i thought is was the peace icon.

I figured it was just trash, but there were only like 5 listed in the last month, one guy got back to me. I tried some other metro areas, and asked if they would ship. maybe I'll get some good deals, maybe not. I always ask for picture, because I don't want those glitter crappy ones they sell at wal mart....

Cindy, if you win the phone, insist that the globe be shipped separately from the base! The base is a lot heavier than other bases and if not packed properly it WILL smash the globe.
They are a very nice addition to your lava collection.

How do you figure the base will smash the globe? It's plastic! It's not very heavy & I doubt it could do any damage, unless in the hands of a ticked off owner! LOL.

[Cindy Bunn]

I can see how that would happen....better to be safe than sorry I guess! Someone outbid me though, so I'm deciding if I want to go higher with it......ugh, starting this collection is beginning to be a pain, lol!!

[Keith]

Not sure how much the base actually weighs, but it feels like more than a couple of pounds. If not packed securely it could shift enough to cause problems, my opinion. With problems encountered with shipping lava lamps in general I would prefer to err on the side of caution. Now, I might have overstated the danger, but I definitely don't want to get hit in the head with one! ;)

Keep looking, Cindy. They pop up all the time!

[Cindy Bunn]

oh, why oh why did you have to show me that?!?!?!?! Now I want one of those too!! lol!!!!
