Got a little nutty/obsessed and went from 0 - 4 lava lamps in one week :)

I got my first lava lamp this week in just asking around. My co-worker gave me a beautiful, clear, working #24 blue/yellow, circa 1999.

Then, two days later, I got a nice #10 from some dude on a local auction site for $10.

Then, two eBay finds (both Buy it Nows - I have little patience!).

I'm a little curious about this one:

The woman said the cap said:
Lava Simplex International
05
950741n803

Is that a China lamp? Please say it's not! I'm *hoping* it's a 1995 lamp, but I don't know why the cap says Lava Simplex International.

Mostly, I just want clear, good-working lamps, but I'd hate to find out I bought a China-made one from Lava.

Then tonight I scored this:

This color combo is the one I wanted the most: purple/yellow.

I again got too impatient and couldn't wait for an answer so I just did a Buy it Now.

I hope neither one of these comes back to bite me in the butt! I found a really nice "letter to the seller" on here about how to package and ship these items. I hope I've made some good choices...

Let me know what you think! I'm only looking to get my collection up to about 5 or so lamps, but we'll see how it goes. :)

Yay! I keep telling myself I'm going to stop at 5 or so lamps, but I don't know. I'm kinda on a high right now. Good thing I don't have super expensive tastes in lava lamps. :)
