Feeling really tensed

HI All,
After 3 years I was finally able to find an exporter who shipped me a Grande Lava lamp which is huge but the issue is that,I powered it up let it run for 5 hours but sadly nothing happened.And now when I heat it up for 2-3 hours all the wax floats up and small goblets either drip slowly or dont drip at all I mean its not working at all..

Its a 27 CM lamp
any one who can help me out?

Thanks
