Nothing to pursue with the seller, he's a good friend and we trade things from time to time. He'll fix this if I want to keep it or take it back.
Driving is difficult for me at this time so I will either wait until I can or have Fedex pack it themselves and deal with whatever happens.
Re spare tubes...I've been in the tube rodeo for the last 20 yrs with many new and vintage tube units and have many a spare tube for backup.
Thanks for the tips.

I had some CE twist locks leak on my MC30's, ran down the outside and ruined the chrome. :(

MC30's = nice amps. I've had a 240 and a couple generations of the 275. if I were to get another Mac, it would be a 225 or 30's like yours.
Did you replace the leaky caps immediately or did you play it for awhile before doing so?
They had been sitting on the shelf for a while, took them out to listen to them and noticed the streaks on the chrome. Pulled them apart, checked the ESR and the caps were dead. I then just installed some F & Ts I had on hand inside the chassis and called it a day. If I remember correctly CE had some problems when they first reissued the "FP"s so maybe this was one of their problems. I've used several since and no problems yet.
