I can also usually offer singles, pairs, quads, etc. of thetube(s) you see here.I’vebeen buying/collecting/selling vintage electronics for over 30 years, and have been an electronics engineer, Certified ElectronicsTechnician, amateur radio operator, and tube hoarder for much of mylife. I've been an eBay seller since February of 2000. This is theonly seller account I have on eBay and the pictures you see are ofthe actual tube(s) you’ll receive. Tubes are described, tested, andpresented to the best of my ability, subject to the limitations ofthe equipment that I have available (Hickok 539C and 6000A). Testresults are likely to differ some between your equipment and mine dueto the imprecise nature of 60-year-old consumer-grade test equipment.Unless otherwise stated in this listing, tubes are untested for noiseor microphonics.Questions?Offers? Do you have tubes to sell me (I do buytubes!)? Please contact me via the eBay messaging system or byother means.Ifyou have a problem with your order please send me a message and waitfor my reply.

If thetube arrives to you DOA or significantly not as described (SNAD) Ipay for return shipping. I do not pay for return shipping for anyother reason. If a tube is returned as DOA or SNAD, but does not testas such upon return, I reserve the right to be reimbursed for anyreturn shipping cost that I paid.Myobligation is to you, the original buyer, while the tube is in yourpossession. That obligation ceases if you decide to resell the tube.Alltubes are stamped with an identifier to ensure that, in the event ofa return, I get the tubes back that I originally sold. The stamp isvery similar to the chalky paint that tube manufacturers used, and assuch, it is removable if rubbed with sufficient force.
