Hi Joe,
 
I have used them this year to test a few 8874s and 3cx800's and found them  
to be quick, reliable, and the results generally consistent with what I 
already  knew or was told about the tubes, and the tubes came back clean and 
well  protected.
 
I was a little concerned when I was told in an email not to worry about  
gettering the tubes -which I did anyway first, as well as continuity and few  
thousand volt hi pot test just to be sure I wasn't sending an obviously bad 
tube  in - but based on my experience would recco them.
 
YMMV of course.

Greetings Everyone,

My first Official posting.

Is  anyone familiar with this offer on E-Bay to test  tubes?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Tube-Testing-Service-Low-Power-Eimac-Electron-
Tubes-8877-8874-4CX250B-/291362633865

Or  anyone else that can test power tubes?

No sense building an amp around  a tube, if you are not totally sure the 
tube is good.
