The End of China Lava Lite?

[Bohdan]

I wonder if there end is finally coming. Many Spencer stores here in my area are unloading there lamps for half the cost and it looks like they are returning the rest of there stock back to home base to perhaps be shipped back to LL for a refund. Seems all of there newer Designer 52z line has ended. I have also seen a few of the Bed Bath and Beyond stores that use to have there 32z Designers are no longer in stock to be seen so it looks like there end is coming or perhaps they have a new Batch of lamps with a new Formula to sell.  I have seen soo many stores that had there lamps for sale that now have up to 80% discounts just to get rid of there Very Bad stock and they are not ordering anymore lamps down the line since they still have lamps from 2009 left.

If this is so then once they are gone perhaps Mathmos will start to sell there Lamps here in the States as it should be.

One of my Spencers had a few that were opened at one point perhaps by another buyer and had been returned for a refund. Even with a 50% mark down buying them for less is not even worth it. They are so bad flowing and the paint finish with its holes may be the only thing worth having . As we have said many times before we saw this new LL company for what they are they talk the talk to many other Lava members and then have played them again with there hopes to sell more Crappy Lava lamps.

When I was in Seattle there was no LL anywhere to be seen , they had other China lamps on their shelves, even at Cost co there was no Lava to be seen, only the Lava Aquariums on sale and they couldnt even give them away.

[Bohdan]

I hope that they soon end there company. They have killed the Lava World as we know it . Even now many people see what there lamps do and are NO LONGER buying Lava lamps as a whole. I went back today to my Spencer store and even at 50% off  there lamps are still there. I see people in the store just walk past them its like been there before no point even looking at the Lava lamp again.

Hopefully if/when Mathmos comes to the USA people will take a second look and realise they are something completely different to LL crap !!!

[George]

The difference is clear Richard ; )

Couldn't have said it better myself !

I love reading the amazon reviews! They are hilarious :D

[George]

You been reading my reviews again? LOL

[Bohdan]

I am seeing even more of there lamps sold for a few Dollars now. Many stores are unloading there stuff even faster now and later on many that are still in stock may be thrown in there dumpsters since many are from 2009 stock.

Thanks to Lava Lite and there wonderful crappy lamps that they have given us here in the States looks like the Flow of new nice lava lamps for us is ending here in the states.

Only the UK will still have the wonderful world of New Lava lamps as they flow so well and look so wonderful.

un lucky

I could get a lamp then ship it to you..

..but it will cost a fortune.

LL did start a new and better batch early last year and the only ones that were worth buying were these 4 lamps they came with a nice looking base and the 32z globes became a winner. They flowed great and over time still looked nice a clear as the day they were bought. A few of the ones shown below have become very hard to find.
