I found this on Craigslist last Friday and called the person about it. I was the first called on it, and he said he would hold it for me until I could come and get it. I went Saturday morning and picked it up. It was 2 1/2 hours from me, one way. That was the downfall, but I'm still glad I made the drive to pick it up. The original box wasn't advertised. When I spoke with the gentleman on the phone, I asked if he had the original box with it. He said he would look in the attic, and when I called back, he had found it! I have never seen a Giant with the original box. The box says GLB10 Base/Black, Lava/Red, Liquid/Clear. The box is dated Nov. 8th, 1999. This lamp came from Dave and Busters Arcades, it was a prize the previous owner won for having a lot of tickets or something. The lamp was never used, except for the pictures on the ad, and when I turned it on. Unfortunatley it's a little cloudy, but it still flows awesome. Overall I'm happy for $50. This is my second Giant, and with the original box I'm pretty happy. It's all original down to the lightbulb.
So how did I do? Was it worth the drive to pick this up? I have never seen a Giant in person, other than the other 1 I bought, and I have never seen one with the original box. It even has the packing foam in the box.
