These are rather special but also rather expensive for the full set.  Is anyone from USA interested, and maybe sell some on to other collectors?

This is truly an amazing listing but very expensive.
Blue-white is an absolutely incredible color that's next to impossible to describe.
They're also incredibly rare and this might be the last chance of ever finding them.
Since there are 14 altogether I was wondering if anyone would like to do a group effort to make it more affordable for everyone and so we could all could get a fair chance at owning at least one of these rare beauties.

Same, i might be down for one. 8)

For those of you who are serious in these lamps send me a PM and I'll let you know all of the details that I've worked out to make this possible so we can all afford these ultra rare lamps while they're still available. I work with PayPal if that's ok for everyone but serious only.

I would love one but I'm dealing with other things at the moment.

Does anyone know what the blue-white color looks like? Is it similar to daylight?

blue-white is cooler than a cool white fluorescent but not exactly like daylight.
I call it snow white.
It's a white light with a cold appearance.
It's very unusual and no other lamp can replicate it.

So where are the seven dwarves then.??  :mrg:

P.S I've already been slapped by Rommie...  :poof: :slap:

:eoled: Something's wrong. It changed and I've haven't heard anything back and we had a deal in the works. :eoled:
Should I just buy the whole lot?  :wndr:
Nevermind, that’s too much for me. Besides, I already have a fluorescent tube that gives off a similar color (10000K).

If it should work out I would also be interested in one, but for the whole lot it was too expensive for me.  And made little sense to buy and ship all to EU since most people interested would want them shipping back to Americas!

Just found out that the seller is willing to sell them individually if you send him a message but act quickly! They're starting to sell fast!

Thanks for the heads up. I messaged the seller and they setup a BIN for me with two. They said that's the minimum you have to buy.

EDIT: apparently the seller ran into some trouble with the shipping and cancelled the listing. If someone here is going to buy the lot and has one or two to spare let me know.
