A set just sold on eBay for over $140. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=350299662464

I thought they'd go for less after Christmas. He didn't post photos of them working until just before the auction ended. They look great! I'm sure that influenced the price. It would have been a huge mistake for him to not post those working photos.

Wow! One thing about that set is that it has TWO blue bulbs that appear to be functioning well! The blue bulbs are getting pretty scarce, since they seem to fail first.

This Miller set does not have ANY blue bulbs (but it does have two green bulbs, which is a plus) ... It will be interesting to see what it sells for:

Update: looks like that set went for $91.

Well, it went for $91 so I missed it. I did get the 5 bulb one though. It doesn't have any blue bulbs.
