Odd SIT/vFET 2SK2087C

Looks like another bad experience with AliExpress for me. I purchased these when the price was $22.50 for 10, then the price shot up. Now I received a message from the seller “items out of stock”. Really?? There was plenty when I ordered. But now they can sell under a different name with higher prices.
 
I should mention that Vunce sent me some PCBs that I needed and so I am simply returning the favor. But I have been blessed countless times by Papa’s generosity and from others. Not to mention the awesome support and knowledge sharing in this forum. Just trying to do my bit.

I just got a notification that my Ali order was canceled and refunded. Maybe that is the universe's way of saying, "You need to finish the J2 chassis transplant, the F5 Mini project, the Singing Bush tweaks, Iron Pre, 2SK79 B1 buffer, etc etc etc before you start another VFET project."
I can relate. I needed a laser cutter and didn't want to fall afoul of the usual ebay drop-shipping nightmares so I ordered direct from the importer yesterday. They refunded me within 6 hours, stating that my nearest warehouse was out of stock. D'Oh!
 
Thank you for information.
I bought them at reliable store in Japan, Wakamatsu.
I did some simple tests and they seem to work correctly.

I received a shipment today. It was not what I had hoped it would be. I also received only one piece, not a lot of 10. I will open a Dispute in a few days as 10 days after shipping has to pass before it can be done.
