I heard about him from others, and I trust his advice and you know the tubes are legit. If there's a problem, he'll get it sorted with a replacement or a refund.

For me, like many of you, the NOS guy was Brent Jessee. For new tubes, I bought Sophia Electric Blue Glass whenever applicable. Yes, made in China, and not cheap, but often better than NOS equivalents.
