Just had very good fortune, as a seller on Ebay advertised the
Marc 300 lamp with a start price of £19.90! I bid straight away and was amazed that there were no other bids and my lamp arrived well-packed in quick time. The seller then advertised another one. I bid again, and won, once more with no other oposition. The seller then stated that he would include yet another lamp when posting!
The two lamps again arrived safely having been very safely packed.
This meant I now had Three Marc 300 new lamps for a total of
£39.80 plus postage!
The price of these lamps in the US is currently $500 dollars each
so my B&H now has a further 90hours of superb light output.
These lamps are now out of production so Christmas Came Early.

David, isn't it great when you get a bargain? I did the same with lamps for my B/H 1695 when a seller in the States was selling them for four dollars each. I bought six. I sang for a week at least!!!
