<p>A restored lamp is better than a lamp with bad wax any time. I don't know if it will go for just as much though. It just matters how much time you want to put into it and what your time is worth to you. Doing a restoration the right way is going to be expensive no matter how you do it. A Gookit is $65+ and so would any other USA made older donor lamp. Trying to make your own formula will leave you disappointed because it will be even more expensive and will take a lot of trial and error.</p>

<p>Ah, i figured that to be the case.. is this also true for refurbished lamps? Say, if the recipe produces a good flow and clouding / separating resistance, will they go for just as much? I know that, if a lamp is really old, the wax gets quite nasty looking. I have a psych-swirl in that condition, and i plan on giving em' a makeover. I just want to make sure im not tarnishing its value by doing so.<br></br> <br></br> <cite>Autumn said:…</cite></p>

<p>It all depends on condition, color combo, and flow. I would say current market (which is currently high) they are around $150-200 in fair condition with decent flow. Any other thoughts?</p>
