Cosmetically, the box is in pretty good shape too. As an early plastic the colouring isn't totally even throughout and there are the remnants of a sticker on the side, but otherwiis it's good - no chips or crack, just some general signs of age and wear.  It measures approximately 21.5cm long by 10cm wide with a height of 4cm (8½ in., 4 in., and 1½ in. respectively).

The un-transformed Chunky Changer measures approximately 7.5cm by 3.5cm by 6cm (3 in. by 1¼in. by 2¼in.). It's in relatively good condition, considering, with some minor surface wear and tear and some ageing to the original orange and white colours -  the white now more of a cream tone and the green less bold than it would have been.

In very good and, more importantly, original condition with "Crabtree" bulb holder still in place.
An earthing terminal has been fitted to this lamp near the connection of the shade.
Not PAT tested, and, as with all electrical items requires inspection and testing in the environment in which it is intended to be used.

Due to the heavy but also fragile nature of this item collection is preferred, though we will, of course, be happy to discuss working with your courier of choice to get the lamp to you safe and sound. Please get in touch with us.

The shade is not mishapened and there are no major dents or dings, and the chrome is in good condition considering the age of the item. The base has some minor scrapes and rusting - particularly to the bottom edges and near the switch - but nothing that undermines the good looks of the lamp and we don't feel that we would undertake to renovate these. What we have done, however, is re-wrire the lamp with an unobtrusive black flex which is carefully complemented by the colour of the switch housing, itself a replacement for the original which was beyond repair. The end result is a subtle reinvigoration.

The buyer may wish to renew the felt on the base (pictured). Post re-wiring we decided in the interests of originality and minimal intervention to reinstate the worn felt which is perfectly adequate in use but, depending on the buyer's preference, could be easily replaced with new felting (the moulded shape for the felt to be adhered to is present and serviceable).

Please note: this lamp will be shipped without a bulb, but it takes a standard bayonet fit.

This one is in good condition overall with only minimal signs of age and wear, aside from a patch on the base which for us wouldn't be a deal-breaker and a little bit of rust on the chrome bar which holds the springs. The shade is in good shape bar some minor dents to the underside and there's very little surface loss to speak of anywhere else. The switch feels solid to the touch and there's a good length of cabling. As always, please have the lamp safety tested and inspected prior to use in your own environment. It's fully functioning but sold on the basis of it being tested in situ.

This particular one is in good condition considering it's almost 40 years old. The plastics are free of chips or cracks and although there are one or two surface marks and some minor discolouration, it is otherwise visually good. There is some wear to some of the numerals on the push-buttons (see photos). It's not been tested and therefore should only really be considered as a decorative item unless you're willing to get it tested and/or updated.

In good condition, with only minor signs of wear and age to the plastic body, and fully functional.

A really nice-looking and effective alarm clock which hopefully will find a suitably retro environment in which to wake up the inhabitants!

This one is in good condition with just the odd minor scuff or scrape to the shade and some minor rusting/discolouration around the switch, but very few dents or dings otherwise. The base measures approximately 13cm wide and 11cm deep, with the shade being approximately 16cm long with a 10cm diameter at the front. With the neck extended to its full height, the lamp measures approximately 43cm. The wiring has been checked and a new switch added, but it is recommended that buyers inspect and safety test (PAT in the UK) electrical items before use.
