We are very pleased and proud to report that on January 5, 2022 we celebrated our 24th year of selling on eBay!  Please check our many years of eBay feedback.  Thanks to you for your continuing support!

 

 

NOTE: I AM ALMOST OUT OF SUPPLY ON THESE TUBES.  AS OF AUGUST 25, 2022 I HAVE ONLY 3 SINGLE TUBES REMAINING. AFTER MY SUPPLY IS SOLD, I HAVE NO MORE, AND I AM NOT ABLE TO GET ANY MORE!


(FYI, I soon may also have matched pairs of NOS RCA (JAPAN) tubes on another eBay auction which sell for a lower cost.)

 

This is an auction for a ONE SINGLE BRAND  NEW OLD STOCK NOS MULLARD 6GK5/6FQ5 TUBE.   I CANNOT PROVIDE ANY MATCHED PAIRS.   These NOS tubes while not marked Mullard, are definitely Mullard tubes.  These also have been certified as Mullards by the very reputable distributor from which these came. These tubes have a filament that frequently "lights up" brightly when first energized, which is a characteristic of the Mullard tubes.  These tubes also have the Mullard raised seam in the top of the tube.  Even though these tubes are not marked Mullard, I am absolutely certain that they are genuine Mullards.  Please take a look at my feedback to check on my eBay reputation for 24 years.  These are truly excellent tubes.  These test readings will be on labels on each tube box.


NOTE: THESE TUBES WERE MADE BY MULLARD IN 1972.  Etching on most of these tubes is AW1 and B2K2.  Some may have slightly different etchings.

 

These tubes are supplied in plain boxes.  These are genuine Mullard NOS tubes.

 

Each tube has been tested on either our calibrated Hickok 539C, TV7 or Hickok 752A tube tester to insure excellent performance.

                  

These British made tubes are excellent for retubing any equipment using 6GK5 tubes or 6FQ5 or 6ER5 tubes and I have many customers who love these in Conrad Johnson equipment and frequently purchase several tubes once they hear these in their equipment.

 

Please email me with any questions using the "Ask Seller a Question" link above.

 

At this low price you may wish to stock up for future needs, I cannot guarantee for how long I will have these tubes remaining for sale and no more of these are being made.

 

Please check my other auctions for some other wonderful audio tubes.  I have an excellent selection of matched pairs of RCA (Japan) 6GK5 tubes, of 6922 tubes as well as Mullard 12AU7 tubes, Mullard 12AT7 tubes and some great Ei ECC83/12AX7 tubes that were made on Telefunken machines!

 

Feel free to check my feedback and bid with confidence. Please email with any questions before bidding. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express through PayPal.  We reserve the right to reject bids from those with negative or hidden feedback. If you fall into this category, please email before bidding! We also reserve the right to declare this auction null and void if eBay is not accessible during the last three hours of this auction.

 

SHIPPING COSTS-DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL

(Effective Jan. 17, 2016)

SPECIAL NOTE ON SHIPPING COSTS: I ship within the US via Priority Mail.  My actual out-of-pocket cost to ship even one tube within the US is $8.65 for Priority Mail plus an additional expense for the private shipping Insurance plus $.65 for the Delivery Confirmation Number (that I will email to you after shipping).   I then need to carefully pack the tube, make out the shipping label and Delivery Confirmation form and wait in line at the post office to ship.  I am certainly not making a profit on shipping these tubes.

VERY FAST domestic shipping and insurance for the 1st tube, using USPS Priority Mail (2-3 Day Service) with Delivery Confirmation and extremely careful packing is $8.60 within the US including Alaska and Hawaii.  Insured Priority Mail shipping to Puerto Rico is also $8.60. Extra single tubes shipped together are only $2.00 extra per additional tube for shipping within the US.  98% of our items are shipped the same day or next business day after payment is received.

One International Shipping Option would be USPS First Class Mail International (4-7 days transit time)  Insurance is NOT available with First Class Mail International but the cost is $15.55 and this cost includes the additional time required to fill out the customs forms.   Again, extra single tubes shipped internationally together in the same package via Airmail Letter Post cost only $2.00 extra for each additional pair.

Our MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED International Shipping option is USPS Express Mail International at a cost of $52.60.  Express Mail International is the ONLY international US Postal Service shipping method that can be properly tracked and if desired we can request that the USPS email you and me with updates as this package travels to your country.  Extra single tubes shipped internationally in the same package via Express Mail International cost $2.00 for each additional single tube.

IMPORTANT SAVINGS SAVINGS ON SHIPPING COSTS:  If purchasing multiple items, please email me at the end of this auction and I will also combine shipping on mulitple items to help offset the cost of Express Mail International.

=============================================================================================================================

 

IMPORTANT: I have a special favor to ask of our buyers:  eBay has a new rating system called Detailed Seller Ratings or DSRs. It's those little stars you click on when you leave feedback.  

 

Here is the problem, and therefore the favor that we ask:  When you give 4 stars, it may seem like a great score, for instance 4 stars in Shipping Time means "Quickly�  eBay, HOWEVER CONSIDERS 4 **** A SUB PAR MARK!!!  WE ARE ACTUALLY PENALIZED WITH HIGHER EbAY FEES IF WE GET 4 STAR RATINGS INSTEAD OF 5 ***** RATINGS!

 

eBay standards require sellers to maintain 4.8 & above or be penalized with higher fees & more.

 

And when rating us for "Shipping and Handling Charges" we ask that you please consider that we pay that insurance service is included that does not show in the postage cost on your package, so please consider that we have paid this additional shipping cost that is not visible on the postage on your package.

 

I strive for 5 star service by stating upfront my policies, my shipping rate & my shipping frequency.

 

If you were pleased with this transaction, please respond with all 5 stars!   If you are not, please let me know via email and I'll work to make it that way.  

 

Please help us work to make eBay an even greater community.  The more “5 Star� ratings we earn, the lower our eBay fees are, thus enabling us to offer our items at the lowest costs possible.  We respectfully ask that you please take this into condideration when deciding if our services are excellent and how many "stars" to leave in your ratings.  eBay does not consider 4 "Stars" good enough to grant us a discount on the eBay fees to us, only 5 "Stars" is good enough! 

 

Thanks! Sandy & Barbara

 

 

ATTENTION:  ITALY / ITALIAN BIDDERS:
Due to NUMEROUS AND REPEATED problems with the speed of Italian Customs & Post Office, we cannot respond to questions about shipping via First Class International to Italy for SIX FULL WEEKS after the ship date.  If your item is being shipped to Italy via First Class Mail International, please do not email asking about delivery until 6 weeks have passed from the date of mailing.  We have had repeated problems with Customs in Italy and buyers in Italy then email us that they have not received their goods.  Then...after many emails back and forth during several weeks, the item always shows up.  This delay is not caused by us and even though we would love to help, there is truly NOTHING we can do about it.  It is the Italian Postal System & Italian Customs that are causing these delays!  Other sellers are simply refusing to sell to Italy.  We do not want to do that, although we will be forced to if there are consistent problems.  We sell many items to customers in Italy!  We love our many friends and customers in Italy!  You are WELCOME to bid on our items, but please understand and abide by these terms.  If you need your item sooner than 6 weeks, please ask us for the cost to ship via Express Mail International which takes about 8-10 days to Italy.  Thank you for your understanding!

Please click on: "View Seller's Other Auctions" for more interesting items. Please check my feedback and bid with confidence. Good luck & thank you for bidding. You may pay for this item on your Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express card at no extra charge through PayPal. If you use PayPal Instant Payment, I will get immediate payment and be able to ship without waiting for your payment to arrive.  Thanks and Good Luck to all!
