Well maybe not extinct, but very tough to find from reliable sources. And the price has definitely gone up. There are still some on ebay for $55 to $100 a quad, but are they rejects? Many reliable sources in Russia (tube-store.com, sovtube.com, ussr-tubes.com) list them as sold out.
Maybe Jim can chime in on why he stopped carrying them.

It wasn't that long ago, European eBay sellers commonly had these for sale in cartons of 100. Some were selling lots of 500 or 1,000. Even with shipping, the cost was only about $4 per tube. It seemed to be a nearly inexhaustible supply. I see now that eBay sellers only have them in pairs and quads, and prices are way up. Sure wish I'd bought more back then!
