What you not happy to get a bit of sun? Smile.... you on camera, look happy in your career as opposed to serving bergers, the cash regester or the priest hood. At very lest false motivation not just inspires you but your crew in getting it... thru the day. Smile and look happy for the camera, or at least look interested and look happy. Terrable photo in a "what's wrong with what we are walking towards or getting into type of way.
Look at the other guys, at least they are there out of purpose - flying to the moon some day but being happy with that or solving the problem in yep we are here, here we are to solve it and it being what we do mam, stand back.
As a addition to the above thoughts, it costs like $12.50 for a new lamp socket retail average price (Osram #F511914 or in general Sylvania #PAR 1) sockets being the king of all on the market and worth that price and more given its metal frame. For a common all the same for the most part lamp socket, Altman using a decent one but not outstanding one it is ok.
Still one should do a contingingant upon inspection of the lamp base/socket condition of the gear serviceability thing with the buy. A good lamp socket when tested should be not only able to retain the lamp when that alone lifts the lamp but with a gentle bounce, still retain it without the lamp falling. On used gear, one would tend to want a good socket to the lamp and short of that it is an added cost on your part to replace or one that will cost you in the long run once worse and costing you in lamps.
Assuming you can bounce test the lamp retention of the socket it should be like $12.50 in the balance for worth of the fixture also negotiable. This given I in pricing it out would not sell bad gear and would only sell gear that is fully functional but given I don’t normally have direct impute on gear sold. In my opinion a bad socket is like a missing gel frame as something needed to be replaced and necessary over that of a plug or lamp for the sale. This otherwise for what you buy the price had at best reflect the overall value or what you will need to pay in making it work properly. Also assuming the microphone bases don’t come with the sale in which case at least for the good fixture - with all its parts and without snapped welds, would be worth in my opinion replacing a lamp socket. Perhaps even adding $5.00 to the cost given lamp provided in being a wash. The other fixture, still at best in the $35.00 at best range if not $25.00 further for that value if it also needs a replaced socket.
This measurement of a PAR lamp socket I would assume the standard for the industry in having the proper and sufficient tension on the lamp base prongs.
This all assuming my standards are more like a mechanic that is inspecting a used car in noting what normally is wrong with it before even getting into strain relief and cord whip type things, amongst loose ground etc type stuff. If coming with the weighted michrophone base, sure as a wash for both, could be worth it overall in what you get this assuming the weighted bases are worth it for you or you resell them for like $25.00 each I would think. Otherwise fair assessment of the value or what to negotiate in value if helpful. Overall, the one with bad frame holder and considering both as per one also requiring you to buy a gel frame and service the gear, it at best at $35.00. If requiring lamp socket in either case, $12.50 at least yet in cost for the lower priced socket at leat given used gear and above that figure costs. Lamp coming with at best like $5.00 for price, and plug say for what is listed like $7.50 averaged out between the inspection and possible re-doing and in good shape with the can itself alone worth say $25.00 minimum.
Hope it helps.
