For a start, I only use 4P1L tubes in my audio system, and I have 150 so job done there. I do use rectifiers and glow tubes in addition, and I have 12AX7s and 6L6/6V6 in my stage amps but that's it really.
The idea of bringing boxes of old tubes into my house is the kind of thing I'd wake up screaming from a nightmare over. Did too much of that once, and I'm still trying to get rid of what I don't want years later.
I can see the point of having a small stash of "likely" tubes, but for the rest they are simply o-b-s-o-l-e-t-e..... They may look nice and have nice memories but that's far from enough.
