As I understand it, it was the manufacture of these bulbs that was banned after a certain date. There’s no ban on buying or selling them as long as there are any available.
Though I have no doubt that the liberals would have dearly loved to ban the use of the bulbs. I suspect they would have done what was done in Argentina if they could. That being sending the Army into people’s homes to take their incandescent bulbs away.
Well, there are still so many available, I’m wondering if people are buying them offshore, and selling them here (?)
