There are a few different kinds of 6C33C sockets available.
On ebay most of the sockets are Chinese clones of Russian sockets.
Chinese: PAIR GOLD 829B 826 TM-30 832B 6C33C Ceramic Tube Sockets B7A Base FREE SHIPPING | eBay
Russian: Ceramic Socket 6C33C 6S33S 6C41C GU32 GMI-6 1pc.or more | eBay
The Russian ones are better but they both have an issue where they have trouble handling the current for the heaters due to poor contact surface and pressure on the pins. Running the heaters at 12v mitigates this issue, but the sockets remain less than ideal
But the one I'm interested in is this one:
This seems like an ideal socket, but I haven't been able to track this type of socket down.
Does anyone know where I might procure such a socket?
PS:
A while ago someone in the UK started selling a teflon version, which is also interesting: 13E1 6C33CB QQV0640A Valve Tube Base Socket PTFE | eBay
but I prefer the ceramic Russian ones.

You have harmed all users of 6C33.
20 euro what the hell.GSTube is out of stock due I bougt from them whole stock (around 240 pcs). If somebody is interested for them the price is 20€/pcs + transport.
I offer 10 euro's each, no more.
20 euro what the hell.

How many do you need?

look if you need 4 pcs:
GS price: 8€/pcs = 32€
bank costs: 15€ (GS do not have PAYPAL ACC)
Transport : 20$ = 15€
goverment tax 7% (32€+15€)= 3€
VAT 20%(32€+15€) = 10€
total: 75€!!! for 4pcs = 18.75€/pcs.
So my earning is 1.25€/pcs!!
How many do you need?
I need 4 in total, but have a lead on two from another seller who is offering $26 for 2. So depending on if he sells them to me or not I need two, or four.

It still seems very expensive and I doubt you paid full price for them if you bought 240 at once.
I suggest you send email do Anton/GSTube asking for the sockets. Surely he can re-plenty the stock...Strange, I can't seem to edit my posts?
Anyway, scratch that, I still need 4 sockets.
The seller did not have the correct type after all.
