Misleading seller--do not trust quality assurances
The item was advertised as being in fundamentally excellent and usable condition. The pictures all showed it looking in good form. When it arrived, almost all of the 18 arms were extremely loose. The delivery guy said there would be a nut inside the housing that I could use to tighten each arm and that I could easily open the housing to fix this. As it turns out, there was no way to get the housing open. I had to take it to my lamp specialist who says that the top collar has been glued in place. He *hopes* he can remove it without scratching the polished chrome. At the very least, this is going to cost me a significant amount to repair. I am very, very disappointed and will not easily trust assurances of quality again.
