I recently aquired a huge collection of NOS tubes - I have a little bit of everything. I am a electrical engineer and have been doing my best to buff up on tubes. In addition, I have a Hickok 539C that will be for sale once all the tubes sell - probably about 6 months 🙂 I have also starting building some kits and I will post my trials and tribulations. Below is the link to the list. If you are interested in certain ones, just email me, and I will email pictures, test results, and any other information required. I will post some pictures of some of the highlights.

**We are only about half-way through the collection. So the list will probably not be complete until sometime next week.

Format of the list is: Brand - Tube Type - Tube Type - Quantity

I would also be willing to trade for high quality chassis, knobs, audio grade resistors, audio grade caps, high quality connectors,.......

Can someone tell me what this is worth, I am having trouble pricing it.

Western Electric Bendix 6900
AF04(645)-5 3.040 G-272685
Date and Factory Code - A902 (white text)
Next line in orange text on tube - 5904
I know it is worth a lot, but I can't find any web listings for the HY-G-300

Still working on a price for the matched pair Amperex Orange Label

If you think any of the pricing is out of line, please say so and post why. I would offer 20% off if all were purchased together. I would test all tubes prior to shipment and email and post results. I would offer returns on tubes if you are in the US. The returned tubes would have to test at same values as when they left my possesion. You would have 3 days to inspect tubes. Shipping would be $10 for USA.

IN ADDITION, I AM GOING TO DONATE 10% OF ANY SALE GENERATED THROUGH DIYAUDIO.COM TO DIYAUDIO.COM.
