I saw that a guy had listed two whitelightning 600w monolights for $450 locally. The add went up around two weeks ago and I didn't notice it until about three days ago. I emailed the guy a few times and didn't get a response, so I thought they must have been sold by now. In the meantime I told my friend with the studio told me not to buy anything yet and that he got a letter in the mail from a photographer who was retiring. I went and checked out what he had and walked away with 4 Norman 400w lights, hoods, snoots and 2 stands for $250. My friend told me that he used them years ago and that they were work horses. They are quite old and have a separate power unit that all of the lights plug into. I did call a pro photography store that said that all of the bulbs and modeling lamps are still available. In the meantime the guy with the white lightings emailed me twice tonight. He did have someone interested but it fell through. Should I keep the older 400w Normans or get the whitelightnings and sell the normans? Anythoughts?...Dean
