    They block bad reviews. Their products don't last. 9000 hour bulb worked for less than 3 months.

    Easily the worst purchase I've made in years.I ordered 32 very small, two-prong LED bulbs from BulbAmerica recently. I ordered double the number I would need so that in the future I could easily replace them. I paid over $150 for these bulbs; it was more than I would have liked, but their shipping was high for a smaller order, so I didn't want to do multiple orders. I figured since they were LED, they would last forever.Boy was I wrong. Three to four weeks in, more than half of the Chinese-made bulbs had failed: switching on and off or simply going out. Six weeks in and I've exhausted all the replacements. Half the lights are empty sockets now (since I've removed them), and several of the remaining ones barely produce any light.I previously had incandescent bulbs for these lights instead, although I prefer LED. There were no issues with those, and they lasted a surprisingly long time.I thought BulbAmerica would do some measure of quality control for the brands they stock, but they clearly don't. I suspect in reality they're actually just a drop shipping company.No surprise, *********** refused to stand by their product. They said that since the product arrived at my home and it was outside their warranty period, they had no responsibility for the outcome. What they don't tell you is that their bulbs might fail right around the time their warranty ends.As a side note, the reason I ordered 32 is because they wanted nearly $20 to ship a box of 16 very small bulbs. This box easily fits in your palm and would actually cost about $5 to ship.Don't buy from them.

    THIS place is a SCAM!! Have shipped back bulbs and trying to get a refund for the orders is like pulling teeth. Several phone calls later and still the the refunds for both orders has not been applied. You have to watch these people, they operate on hoping you forget you shipped items back so they keep your money. Calling my credit card company- never again!!

    Ordered two flood light bulbs from Bulb America..Recieved both but one was bad I was told I would have to pay shipping back to them.The shipping is more than the bulb.I feel they know this so I am stuck with the cost of the bad bulb.It would be better to just give a refund on a defective bulb.My first time and it will my last to purchase anything from this company.
