I did hear about about fake Philips but the listing on ebay states:

"Price is for Pair (2) of Philips Original 6000K bulbs
Factory original replacement bulbs made by Philips with part number: 85122 3D386 35W and 85122+
Top quality made by Philips Germany.
6000K Pure White Color with excellent color match. This color is more white than 4300K, more near the color of fluorescent tubes.
Replace old or damaged bulbs.
Plug and Play for the bulb size listed.
We also sell 4300K version, look in our ebay store.
We are the only seller offering you a true 1 year replacement warranty."


Did anyone buy the same bulbs as me? did they come in the same packaging?
I ordered bulbs before and they always came in a nicer looking clear box.

There are alot of fakes out there and they are good fakes which makes it hard to decipher.

Well i did a little more research and most of the Philips 6k bulbs that ppl buy look like mine.
So im gonna give them a try.

:tiphat:purple ceramic insulate is the key.

Hate to be the one to say it but when something seems too good to be true, it probably is. ;)

any pics of the bulb itself?
