Tubes Asylum

NOS RCA 211s (7) and GE (2)

74.194.163.200

Norm

I have found these all 1942 or 1943 NOS tubes hidden in a cabinet. I had 211 amps briefly about ten years ago that were made in China. I briefly tried two of these in them and they did improve the sound substantially but I sold the amps with the original Chinese tubes.

My question is what are these worth each. I can find no NOS tubes of this age on the internet. I am going to sell them as obviously I'm not going to use them.

If they tubes were mine, I would offer as matched pairs at $375. The key is 'matched' as being the same internal construction, same brand, etc.

vacuumtubes.net lists them for $200 each. I doubt they have any to sell
but if they did, that is what they would sell them for.

That should be a good ballpark figure to start with.

By the way if you don't want to bother with selling them you can
send them all to me :)

  AJ, thanks. I did that but only one GE was listed as NOS. All of mine are. I guess I can go with that one as a guess for what they will get on auction.

    I believe RCA are worth 3 times GE 211s.

      Maybe a factor of 2x but not 3x, in my experience. $400/pr for NOS GE is about the going rate.

        I've been getting 6 to 700 each for RCA for a while now.
