I bought a 14k 250w HQI bulb from them a few weeks ago as "NEW" when I recieved the bulb, they were obviously used. We had a big thread here in the BAR forum. Not only that, I found some loose piece inside the bulb so I called Hami up and they told me to send it back. They confirm back that the bulb was indeed used and DEFECTED. I got a replacement bulb from Hami that had no signs of being used.
So this should answer big debate on weather bulbs are tested or not from MFG when they're new and show signs of being used is normal.
