Ten 6E5P were ordered from this guy on an impulse buy:
eBay My World - mycomponent
I did it before going to bed, woke up to notification my items were shipped. The tubes arrived on the West Coast in eight days. He's worth a test purchase.

I've already bought many lots from mycomponent, they always arrived within a week, well-packaged. He doesn't have everything and doesn't list the early (1960s) military tubes anymore (no more stock, I presume). Shipping is not exactly on the cheap side, but is very reliable OTOH. Maybe it's the Ukrainian post that is expensive. He also mentions low prices on the package, as to avoid excessive customs taxes.
Just ordered from "rutubes" on ebay. Shipped within a day. They won't arrive till for a little while yet. Hopefully he is good.
i have only good expirience with ebay sellers from ex cccp countries
Me too. Well packed, quickly shipped, and exactly what I ordered in all cases.
I've dealt with several. Usually the fact that they have thousands of positive feedbacks and nary a negative one to be found is a pretty good clue.
Gintaras no reply
Anyone dealt with Gintaras lately?
Last year I didn't receive a package I paid for.
Attempted to contact him many many times but no reply.
It's a shame as I was looking forward to using his coupling caps I ordered.🙁

How long ago did you order the parts and did you pay using paypal? (Or a credit card?) I haven't dealt with this particular seller in a while if at all.
Hope it turns out ok, and you're not out a significant chunk of change..

I have the same experince as Brit01 - one package of two not received.
I eventually got a reply from Gintaras, offering to re-send, even though I did not have insurance - great I thought.
I said leave it for another week - it could be tied up in the Christmas mail. However, despite a reminder I have heard nothing since.
I'm about ready to order again, so I'll mention it again.
I'd agree though, Gintaras is good and fast when you buy and sorting out the cheapest way to ship, but slower on fixing problems.
I would use him again.
Anybody know a seller of the rare 60s russian EL84 types - with black plates?

I just received 50 6J9Ns from ebay seller ananiashvili2006. very good communications, and 18 days delivery from purchase.
Every dealer from the former Soviet Union I've dealt with has been good.

I used paypal but missed the date eligible for a case.🙁
He had a good reputation so I was surprised he never responded to any of my emails.

I've bought from Gintaras multiple times now, and never had any problem. I do get the impression he's often away from home, and very busy.
50% of my packages from Russia/Eastern Europe do not arrive!! The vendors are great, and as someone above mentioned, re-sent everything for free, but it still never arrives. Tracking shows the packages leaving customs in the USA and entering possession of USPS, and thats the end of them. USPS will NOT help me, as I am not the sender. And the one day I did spend complaining to USPS all day long (I had to escalate a lot! Yelling, cussing, etc to get any help) , and got higher and higher up in their package claim department, they told me its still in customs, even though tracking clearly says it left customs. It's difficult getting the people in eastern europe to start a claim w/ their post offices. I've given up.
And its not that I'm impatient.. This all started about a year ago when I placed my first order.. didn't arrive..
complained, he resent a few months later.. never arrived..
Placed an order in june, never arrived. Got the vendor to re-send at the end of july.. never arrived.
Finally, Oct I tried one last time.. never arrived...

I wanted to be a reliable provider of Russian parts that I know about, but as soon as I launched my online store my DSL went down. Can't get it fixed - at&t voice menu system promises everything, but does nothing, during a week.
It finally got fixed: the technician come to my house and checked the line, after that I got access to the oerson who can at least understand technical questions, and she confirmed that the modem was dead. She switched me to DSL modem department, they said as soon as my modem is so old I have to replace it for my expenses. I bought one, and replaced. Now it works fine.
Then, out of curiosity, I wanted to access a dead one to check it's configuration, but could not: neither HTTP ACL, nor telnet passwords I used before, matched. It won't allow me to get in. My conclusion is, the firmware was some how hacked.
Now, since I am back online, I will continue working on my online store.
It took 11 days of calling multiple AT&T departments, waiting, calling again and again, waiting, ... until I had an access to somebody who could provide support 🙁
Now their robot called me asking to give a survey about the support I got yesterday! No other options, yes or no!

Oh yeah!!!
Hacked and mangled DSL modem firmware is a HUGE issue. Very often the provider specific "tweaks" are the source of security access loops (usually they are placed there especially to allow the provider tech staff a way in to running hardware without tripping user intrusion alerts, or to ensure that the often less than up to date provider hand-shake protocalls are accepted). Then we all know about the "it's just an upgrade" scenarios that pull the whole show into chaos!!!!!
🙁
I can't wait for your store to be active!! Great news!
