Hi Carey,
It is disconcerting to hear this unprincipled cowboy story.
If you want an honest and reliable and fairly priced source of Russian
military surplus tubes then you can't go past Dr Alex Garvva UR4LL in
Ukraine. I've dealt with Alex for many years and never had a dud tube or any
other component.

Dr Alex is highly recommended.
Cheers,
Leigh

Subject: [Amps] BAD DEAL STAY AWAY!
Hello all,
I would like to say that i am not in the habit of flaming someone but
this guy i will. I went to ebay and purchased a pair of gs35b tubes from
a seller named Tube-Shop also known as Serge UT5JCW for the only reason
that he offered a 14 day return. i usally buy from qro-parts with no
problems. so i did get the tubes and yes one was bad. i emailed Serge
UT5JCW and asked to exchange the bad tube. he said fine. meantime after
thinking about it i desided it would be cheaper for both of us if i
would just buy another tube without a cooler. 80 dollars to be exact. so
today i went to his store on ebay and added the tube and a really neat
little transverter board to my cart. guess what i have been blocked from
buying from him and can not even contact him through ebay. after digging
through old emails i find his address from the paypal payment. i email
him and ask why i was blocked. here is his reply and quote
"To be hornest I can say you why. I always block the buyers when they
return the goods. You know there is an old tubes and sometimes we have no
way to check how buyers use them. Sometimes they broke the tubes by misusing
them and then return the tubes back. Here no way to change them so we lost
the money. To buy the tubes somewhere else.
---
With best regards, Serge UT5JCW " end quote.
i am not sure what to think of this. and hate to see another builder get
burned. but just be warned about buying from Serge UT5JCW
