..Certainly can't speak for your locale but where I'm at the hams and antique radio guys are fully aware of what audiophools will pay for the correct 6SN7 and they price accordingly. Most don't understand the 6SN7 mystique and make condescending jokes about their audiophool customers but they don't hesitate to take their money either. Just don't tell the antique guys about the old radio you bought at the flea mkt for a few $ and trashed just to get the 2A3s...
The internet has created efficient, knowledgeable markets for just about everything so the bargains are pure luck these days.
