Respect to all of your family participating in supporting the Ukraine! My heart goes out to the civilians and the brave soldiers fighting for their country. I have contributed to the humanitarian efforts, although I wish I could fund a antitank missile, this is such a horrible act. I am so disappointed that once again Europe is plunged into war.
Ok, tubes. This is supply and demand. If a distributor like Upscale does not raise prices, then folks that actually do not need them will buy them expecting to sell them at a profit and Upscale will not have any to sell to their customers. Simple. Long term, if Russia continues on its current course then Tube manufactures will move to the US or elsewhere to fill the demand. My understanding is that the manufacturer of KT120… etc is an American company… they will move it home.
