Standard GLS incandescent lamps have been prohibited from sale in the EU for several years now, so can't be sold in this way. There are a few loopholes in the legislation, but even halogen lamps are becoming difficult to find now. I guess the position in the US will vary by state unless federal restrictions are enacted.
