What I would do, is pin them all out with my trusty audible continuity meter and toss out the ones with infinite resistance...then just offer the good ones for sale...that would be my diligence. I would ask the buyer to purchase insurance, and pack with bubble wrap and peanuts. That would be it...if they don't work upon arrival, the buyer gets the insurance and trys again. They could blow out with the first voltage applied! ...not my problem...they're old...maybe vacuum failure...or just too many times moved around...just try buying again. Or get some LEDs.

Often with electrical items, they were stored bad and moisture can cause an issue.  Also, sometimes when one see large lots, like with this seller, it could be that a batch had a manufacturing defect and got dumped on the aftermarket years ago. One never knows. But the guys attitude of buy it and gamble bothers me.

 

Now if he had advertised it as ornamental only that would be one thing…

I never considered the potential perishability of the incandescent lamp. Beyond vibration what are you concerned about?

Just venting…

 

I wanted to try and find some older production 1004 light bulbs for the dome lights on the ’64. So I look on eBay.

 

One guy is sitting on a number of 10 packs of the bulbs sold via shell gas stations.  He states no refunds. So, I ask him if I order two or three packs and test them and some or all of them test bad, will he send out replacements.

 

The guy tells me to buy from someone else.

 

I just love people who do not stand behind what they sell. I responded to him that he should change the description to boxes of light bulbs that probably do not work for shelf display only….
