Tubes

I have been a tube gear aficionado for almost 40 years. I have accumulated an enormous number of small tube and power tube tubes. I am getting out of the hobby, Happy with the tubes that I do own, not needing most of the rest of them, but not sure how to dispose of the rest of them. I don’t really have enough documentation to sell the tubes that I have. I’d appreciate any advice.

Tubesandmore.com  Antique Electronic Supply will gladly buy bulk tubes.  I've sold to them by the box.  Email them and offer a list of tubes and they will tell you if they want them.  Check out their tube list to get an idea of values.  Obviously tubes that test new in boxes are worth the most.

@elevick , thanks for that info ...never heard of them.  I have a drawer full of unused tubes.

@dshuler   Also, you might find pretty reliable vendor on EBay who may be open to buying.

Thank you all very much for your responses - very helpful. Yes, I am in NYC - UWS, 10025. mclinnguy, you are right that I don't have the wherewithal to send a lot of small packets around the country. So finding someone to purchase the entire lot I think will be the answer.

 

In case anyone on this thread is interested, the power tubes that I have are:

Mullard EL34 (new) - 8

Sovtek KT88 - 4

Black Treasure KT88 - 8

Electroharmonix KT88 - 6

 

I am leaving tomorrow for a two week trip out of the country. I will pick this up again when I return.
