Wow. And he only wants $60.00 for that gem...what a steal.

There are sellers in HK that have tube amps for sale. Could be good value till you notice the freight is higher than the starting bid.

Yes - but tube amps *do* have a shocking watts to kilograms ratio (even worse if you think in watts per pounds), and international air freight *does* cost an arm and three legs.
