Hello Guys And Girls, I am new to this site and was looking for a good reasonable place to buy tubes. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great! Thanks in advance.

This doesn't belong in For Sale or Trade, so it has been moved.

Now - may I suggest Bob Dobush, proprietor of Findatube.com. Always good, efficient service and very reasonably priced.

Ron,
WOW ! Once again I am reminded that the Philco Phorum is Da Bomb dot Com! I've been buying tubes since i was 10 (that's 54 years btw) and I thought I knew every good deal on the net. I don't know how I missed findatube. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
