[Amps] BAD DEAL STAY AWAY!

[Carl]

Dave, do you know any sources in Georgia? My Brian is now there at the 
embassy for 18 months and will also be in several other former Republiks 
during that time.

Those GU-81M's and sockets you picked up for me in Friedrichshafen are doing 
just fine.

Thanks for the heads-up, Carey. Much appreciated.

When I've bought Russian tubes I usually buy them on the fleamarket at 
Friedrichshafen, knowing that most fleamarket sellers will be back again the 
next year and will have to face the music if they sell duds. Zoli HA4XN is a 
good source of Russian tubes as is Andreas DL9USA.

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
