Well, I keep checking ebay for F90T17 and F40T17 posts, but no new items for many months. Just one from a seller for some F90T17/CW. Then all of a sudden I see 2 more gems in the space of a week from the same guy! The first link has been active for many months now: F90T17/CW LIGHT BULB! NeW! MINT! RaRe! 82W 60" COOL WHITE Sylvania/GTE USA Cool White F90T17/CW Note: I bought 2 of these and they are NOT 82W as stated in item title. They are 90W tubes. http://www.ebay.com/itm/F90T17-CW-LIGHT-BULB-NeW-MINT-RaRe-82W-60-COOL-WHITE-/291379619046?hash=item43d79424e6:g:4swAAOSwEeFU2438F90T17/D LIGHT BULB! NeW! MINT! RaRe! 82W 60" DAYLIGHT New Old Stock NOS Ken-Rad 90W Daylight F90T17/D http://www.ebay.com/itm/F90T17-D-LIGHT-BULB-NeW-MINT-RaRe-82W-60-DAYLIGHT-New-Old-Stock-NOS-/301921382792?hash=item464beab188:g:4swAAOSwEeFU2438F90T17/CG LIGHT BULB! NeW! MINT! RaRe! 82W 60" COOL GREEN Lifeline / Sylvania U.S.A. ***F90T17-CG** http://www.ebay.com/itm/F90T17-CG-LIGHT-BULB-NeW-MINT-RaRe-82W-60-COOL-GREEN-/301927264838?hash=item464c447246:g:4swAAOSwEeFU2438I REALLY wish I knew where this guy manages to get his stock from, he knows exactly how rare these are and is charging accordingly. I bought 2 of the Cool White tubes a while ago when they first went on sale. Don't know if I want to spend a whole 2 month's spending money on 2 more tubes though. Thought I'd post these here to give you guys a heads-up to see them, at least the seller's pics are very tantalizing! Aside: I HATE ebay sellers who use RaRe! L@@k! and the like... heheheh Edit: If anyone here buys some I'd love to hear it, and of course post pics!

Yeah the RaRe irritates me. They're not selling radium and rhenium unless stated. And that L@@K just doesn't settle right.

I LOVE those Ken-Rad Daylights and especially the Sylvania Cool Greens. I bet the latter are rare as hen's teeth. Boy, I'd love to see them lit in person!
Now, if someone can find an F100T17/B, I'll be REALLY impressed.

I would love to have a real F90T17 fixture I live in the same state that the seller of these F90T17s are in and I couldn't find any F90T17 fixtures anywhere in this state or even this abandoned building that I found those 2 F90T17s in a couple years ago.

Somewhere There Is Light(ning)

I REALLY wish I knew where this guy manages to get his stock from, he knows exactly how rare these are and is charging accordingly. Who knows, they probably found them at a ReStore or maybe a lighting-supply place closing sale and paid a few bucks each LOL Aside: I HATE ebay sellers who use RaRe! L@@k! and the like... heheheh This I totally agree with this ... and 'L@@K' I say that as "Laak" I also hate sellers that snatch pic's and use them as their own (for example the seller of those lamps for example swiped the 'size' images in their auction from donsbulbs.com)

Because I bought 3 full cases the power of buying bulk works every time. Unfortunately these are not tested so 6 were no good due to vacuum loss but they reembursted me another case which was fair because I did pay more for the cool greens. They definitely gave me a decent deal and I'm very happy to have several cases in my possession

Ten bucks a lamp is not what I'd call a deal, but to each his own.

Yes 10$ a lamp is steep but including case and shows up in pne piece that would be good for some collecters but I'm not one. If it were a f96t12 vho kenrad FOR 10$ I'd jump on it
