Tube Depot's "NOS vacuum tube sale"


Tube Depot does distinguish between "lightly used" and NOS.  Where do all the new old stock tubes keep coming from?  It's like there is an infinite supply?

. . . SED Winged C EL34s that are theoretically NOS for only $100 a pop and all I need are a dozen. . . .

@whart  , I did buy some tubes (12au7s, 6922s, 6550s) from Andy back before 9/11 and I was mostly happy.  As far as Tube Depot goes, I do note that some of the vintage tubes they have on sale are specifically listed as having light use on them.  There are some Tung Sol (not the Russian reissue) EL34s that come to mind, and I think there may have been some 6SN7s listed the same way.  Probably more, but those were the only two tu8be types I was really looking at.
