Crooked lamp shades

I have some lamp shades on new lamps that don't quite sit level, e.g., they are crooked. How do I fix this? And is this an unusual thing, or a common thing? How can I buy more reliably more level lamps in the future?
I recently bought 2 lamps (a table lamp, a floor lamp) from 2 different retailers for ~$100 USD each (Lamps Plus & Wayfair, if relevant.) The lamp shades on both of them don't sit level on the "harp" of the lamp, e.g., one side is a bit higher than the other. It seems like the part of the harp that connects to the lampshade structure is just askew.
1) How can I fix this? I currently have a bit of electrical tape wedged into where the lampshade meets the harp + finial to make it less bad.
2) Is this a common thing for lamps at this price point? Or lamps, period? I've been google searching this, but it seems like this is an uncommon problem by how few helpful sites there are.
3) How can I avoid buying wonky lamps with lamp shades in the future? |
