Wow, looks to good to be true...cheapest I've ever found them is 38 shipped.

 

[yagyujubei]

I just bought four of these - $58.75 shipped.

Thanks! I also just ordered 4--$58.75...you must be near me, are you in Lancaster county?

that is an amazing price!

 

[Mgridgaway]

So tempted to buy one... but I won't actually need one until next September...

just bought 10 for the price of what you'd normally pay for like 3 of them...hurry up! there's 18 left...

wow this place must be good, they have good reviews, are a "top 5,000 reviewer" and looking at reviews someone bought a reptifogger for $14 and change (about 1/3 regularly seen price) and it was all there, functional, no problems.

So my original thought that they might be putting some other bulbs or used/broken bulbs in the powersun boxes is put to rest for now. We'll see if/when they arrive if this turns out to be a great find or a big hassle.

That must of been a special price. I just clicked the link and they now cost 41.99 plus 5.95 shipping.

Me too. A typo maybe?

 

[yagyujubei]

Yep, Looks like the deal is over. They sold about 40 in the last three days.

I did for me also, but when I searched for more of those bulbs I found the one's that were selling for $13.20

link above is incorrect...9 left.

I think this might have been a typo also. I ordered 4. If it was a typo this seller is going to take a big hit on this sale. Just can't see how they could sell them that cheap and make any profit at all.

If this is true, I highly suggest you measure the UV output. The UV on these usually lasts about 6 months...but the bulb itself can last up to 3 years. So, I wouldn't put it past someone to repack it and sell it!

 

[StudentoftheReptile]

Maybe the bulbs are used?

 

[lynnedit]

He does get good ratings, and the ad says 'new'. You never know. Checking UV output is a good idea.
Checking to make sure they work right away is a good idea too, even if you don't use them immediately.
I ordered two, at least they will make a good back up bulb, but also may just be a great deal!
Thanks for the tip.

I thought that was more true of tube lighting and that the Powersun lasts about a year before replacement?

Also, deals over folks! I'd like to hear if anyone actually gets their bulbs.

I ordered one...paid around $21.00 (tax and shippment included) Just received it yesterday. It seems to work fine...wish I had ordered more. Thanks guys for posting the ad!

I got my 4 today. They were in original packaging and never opened (you can tell if a box has been opened before). I measured the UV and they were all good. Thank you for putting us onto this sale. I should be set now for quite awhile.
