Good luck, Mike. I hope eBay rules in your favor.
I've seen the name Jim McShane mentioned on AudioKarma from time to time...and never in a negative connotation.
Funny...before the vintage audio amp craze hit, one could find 12AT7s, 12AX7s, etc. all day long for peanuts. They were often found with bushels of 1960s TV tubes. Who knew that they would suddenly become rare, precious, beautiful...and valuable.
Sort of like Catalin radios. I recall seeing a butterscotch FADA (not the little bullet, another cabinet style) at a roadside yard sale in the early 1980s for $10. I passed, thinking that such a radio would never be valuable. What did I know...
