Has anyone gotten a mega ray recently? They claimed that the backorder was over, and I ordered a 100w on 12/02. Guess what? NO bulb yet. Is this guy simply the worst businessman on Earth,or is there something else going on. Website says bulbs are on backorder now. I'm ready to go to paypal for refund.

I have not received mine yet but I talk to a guy at Reptile UV Tuesday an was told they have shipped a bunch of them at that time and that they have to test each bulb before they ship it out he also said that orders that were for sick animals & zoos went out first who did you order yours from? if you just ordered it on 12/2 they are filing orders from I think he said September till now so you be towards the end they just came in on 12/7 give it a few more days

I just received 2 yesterday. I've been waiting since October.

I chatted with the guy on the phone for awhile and he said that they now have another manufacturer for the glass and should have enough stock starting January to keep a steady inventory.

Apparently they test each bulb for proper levels. Only then do they ship it out. They seem to be really interested in producing the best possible product. Maybe that doesn't make great business sense, but I appreciate the quality control.

Oh if anyone's still waiting for their bulb, I spoke to Jimmy a while ago and he informed me that they've got back orders up to the 15th of Dec, shipped out as of today. They've got the bulbs and are catching up on orders. Fingers crossed!

It's 25 days since I paid. I got an email on 12/22 saying it shipped with tracking no. Scheduled delivery 12/24. Still waiting, tracking no. says "Billing info. received". Why am I not surprised?

you know, it's stories like this that make me never want to order from them again. I'm just overall very unimpressed with megaray right now (actually, since I ordered my MVB from them a year ago technically)

are you all using the EB or the SB i ordered the sb but only because they didnt have any EB, seems like the EB is a better value in the long run but only if you dont need the heat out of the bulb.....cant wait to get it non the less
