The scenario you describe is a recipe for disaster IMO.I have purchased lots of tubes off eBay, but never from the type of seller you describe. I purchase from the reputable dealers that sell on eBay, Ken Chait, Ed Sawyer, etc.
If one can get the sort of tube you describe for cheap, i.e. $5, has a decent tester, then sure, go for it. If the tube is junk then I am only out a few bucks and have not smoked my gear.
IMO the prices on eBay are much too high. I can do that well, if not better, from reputable dealers. Good dealers test their tubes and stand behind what they sell.
Occassionally there is a true deal on eBay and I jump. Less-and-less often since most of the stuff is much too expensive and of questionable quality IMO.
