Be careful of buying caps from a private seller, especially at a bargain price.
They could be decades old even though "brand new". Ask for the date code. 
Filter cap service in a high power amp is quite demanding. Get the best, you
won't be sorry.

Unlike distilled spirits, caps and tubes do not get better with age.
