I´m looking for three puffer fishes. Either lamps, or a project to make a lamp.
I´m after one 12" (red), one yellow 10" and one green 7".

If you dont have finished made lamps, I´m interested in the sizes 12, 10 and 7 inches.

You may know this but, the color comes from the color of light bulb you put in the socket that is in the blowfish.

How much was the shipping costs to California?

Puffer was $26.99 (12").
Shipping was $20.50.
Grand total: $47.49.
Not a bad deal at all. I am very curious to see how the fish is packaged to protect it on its long journey.

I'm going to bet it will be a small as they can box at
that shipping cost.

Dam the shipping is almost as much as the light though.

True, but one that size here will set you back over $100, depending on the seller.

$100 for a 12"?? I sell mine at Don's ITMP for $35.00, a 14" is $45.00, for a $100.00 you can buy a 20" one. Check out my Facebook page at Tikivato Orginals for my puffers. Problem is, I do not ship.
Here's some 12" 14" and 18"puffers I sold at Tiki Caliente


And these I sold at Kon Tiki in Tucson

A happy customer at Kon Tiki

Oh, wow, great prices! I bought a 7" at the ITMP in April (not from you!) and it was around 75 bucks! AND it's falling apart. I wonder if it is safe to use hot glue on them?

Yes hot glue gun will work. I will not be at the next ITMP but if you go to Oceanic Arts please PM me. I live near by there and I will be more than happy to repair it for free.
