Ordering from PlanetLava.com

[Phil Harris]

Anyone ever deal with them in the past?  i just put an order in for some 20oz neons with general shipping.  Crossing fingers it goes well.

I didn't know they were still around. Haven't heard anyone ordering from them in awhile. 

Let us know how it goes!

I thought they were gone too. Never did hear of any problems in the past, they always seemed to be one of the better sites to buy from.

i got my confirmation number and tracking says delivery by end of day thursday.  so far pretty quick service

well they arrived today, found them at the front door upon my return from work.  i ordered five, three are pretty cloudy, one slightly and one marginally cloudy.  sigh.

running them now, about 4 hrs into it... see how they settle.  should know better ordering online.  yikes.

couple days into breaking them in, prob a total of 20 hours run time now.

the green neon compared to one ive had, the darker green has a 2013 manufacture date while the one i just got has a 2012 date.  its a lighter green, almost yellow in the pic but in rl not as much... odd.  incidentally all the neons in this order have the same date.  lemon lime soda anyone?  also the older one is clear, ive been using it to judge clarity of the new arrivals.

the blues are the clearest of the new arrivals, one on the left is the clearest... still both are hazy.  the pic makes them look better actually.

the pink are the cloudiest for sure.

one last observation.  the 2013 black base is glossy the 2012s are almost matte finish
