FS: BG N Capacitors

I have eight original BG N 100uF 50V capacitors I purchased way, way long ago when I was building Peter Daniels gainclones. Included here is a pic I copied from the internet. I'll include real pics later today. I still haven't figured out a fair price for them so I'll see what interest they attract first.

Regards,
Dan

not sure what you want to say with this:" two of these in parallel are quite the same value for coupling and sound better. Black gate prices are so high ..."
2x22uf =44uf not 100, the size of those "Japanese " caps when you parallel 5 of them is at least 5 times more than the size of one BG N Capacitor.
And do you think that 14$ for a 22uf film cap is good? is not...And how do they sound better ? I totally disagree , Black Gate N series have a special/different/unique sound.
Someone who appreciate that special thing will spend a little extra money to get them.
