where to buy metal halides?

[ReefGuru]

I am looking to buy two 12,000K 250 watt metal halides. A few people around the board said that they have bought halides for 40 bucks. Where do I buy my halides??

Thanks everybody

Maybe ebay? I would be wary of the quality though. I paid $59 for a Aqualine 10K 175w. You don't see too many 12000k bulbs though...

Yea, I met a person who does that. I would not trust ebay.
