Hi,
a friend of mine recently was very generous and sent me four used 4CX800 /
GU74b which he didn’t need anymore.
The tubes where traveling a while and through several non-EU countries.
Today the parcel finally arrived.
I have already heard wild stories about customs, but I didn’t expect this:
*Customs drilled holes in two tubes and later opened them with a saw.
I compiled a couple of pictures on my website:

Anyone else had already similar experiences?
*Btw: Is it true that these tubes contain Beryliumoxid and thoriated
thungsten?
What is the health risk going out from an opened tube?
