Good way to get bulbs shipped
By Trevor on Mar 12, 2020
Where I live, it's hard to find flourescent bulbs. It's also hard to get them shipped as most companies don't like messing with Large glass items, but both arrived very nicely packaged and in perfect condition.

These lights are suppose to last ~ 6 months. Nope. Less than 24 hours. I don’t know if I got a dud or what. But really disappointing.
