Since you expect your version of a "fair to you" price for unknown used
tubes to be 1/2 of NOS RETAIL (as stated in an email) you might as well put
them back in the attic.
To expect a buyer to have to do your testing and chance damaging HIS
equipment and still have to pay an outlandish price isnt fair to him.
The purpose of this forum is hams helping hams, not someone joining strictly
to troll for values so they can be maximized on Fleabay.
