Is this a special price or are they always this price?

Like Micki, I also just purchased "back-up" bulbs from EBay (site posted by Hunger) last night, but these are cheaper still.... If you get enough people, I'll pick up 2 x 250W x 20K SE MH bulbs to help out the cause; do they carry radium bulbs??? ....just keep me posted...

slandis3 · « **Reply #7 on:** November 30, 2011, 20:16:48 »

right now that is regular price, I am going to ask about a price break on them tomorrow.

Wow just checked for everything right now its only 10.52 to ship so add about .96 to the price of each bulb. Thats still cheaper than ebay and they are located in USA.

HUNGER · « **Reply #10 on:** November 30, 2011, 21:11:27 »

still a great price

Blown76mav, yes

I am going to run this for a few days to see how many people want to join in.

Blown76mav · « **Reply #14 on:** November 30, 2011, 22:04:20 »

I was joking, but you guys are always welcome to come up.

micki · « **Reply #15 on:** December 01, 2011, 05:53:34 »

I guess if I get 3 of these plus the ones I just ordered that gaive me at least 16 months work of lighting for around $100.00. Not bad!

Mike if you can get a group buy I'll take 3 250 SE 14K please.

slandis3 · « **Reply #16 on:** December 01, 2011, 06:05:58 »

Sure thing

Looks like the more we order the cheaper shipping gets, right now its down to .70 a bulb. Sweet. I am going to email and as if they will do a group buy or at least free shipping.

micki · « **Reply #17 on:** December 01, 2011, 06:09:08 »

Great! Thank for doing this!

slandis3 · « **Reply #18 on:** December 01, 2011, 06:29:43 »

OK I sent them an email to see if they offer any kinda group rate discount of free shipping. I will let you guys know when I hear back.

So the email I got says we don't have enough to get a discount, I replied asking how many bulbs we would need to get one. Hopefully once I get to work I will know and post up.

HUNGER · « **Reply #21 on:** December 01, 2011, 20:01:43 »

slandis3 · « **Reply #22 on:** December 01, 2011, 20:08:57 »

Let me see what he says and go from there with it. Even at the standard prices they are still cheap.

HUNGER · « **Reply #23 on:** December 01, 2011, 21:25:42 »

very true

Viggen · « **Reply #24 on:** December 02, 2011, 02:15:40 »

Keep us posted on what quantity is needed for free shipping even though that will not save each of us very much $$.
