Several weeks ago I was contacted by phone by a person who said he represented Handicapped & Disadvantaged Employment of Phoenix AZ. He told me they were selling long life lightbulbs for $5.00 plus shipping. I know there is nothing outstanding about that price but I assumed they were compact flourescent bulbs and he told me I would be helping disadvantaged and unemployed persons. When I received my bulbs today I was very dissapointed.They were ordinary bulbs and seemed to very sloppily made. there was poor soldering on the base, some bulbs seemed to have dirt inside them and one had a broken off filiment. (metal content). There was no brand name on them but they were marked "American, made in USA, !0,000 hours, 130v, krypton. They billed me $47.06 for 4. I checked them out on the Internet and they had one complaint on a website called Ripoffreports:
