I aquired a box of 6LX6 tubes today. They are not in their original boxes but are individually bubble wrapped. Like new.
All tubes are in good condition and tested. I have 13 tubes in all.
$35.00 a pc + plus the ride.

I'll try to get some pix up tomorrow.
 

My bad. The tubes are 6LX6. GE Tubes.
Here are a few pix

These tubes are still available.
I might be interested in purchasing 7 tubes from you but I have to make sure they would fit. I've read of some tubes being longer than the original tubes. What is the length of the tube from very top of glass to the bottom where they would set if they were plugged in. Not including pin length. And what's the cost of the ride to Zip Code 18824 for all 7 tubes. I'd have to send a money order because I don't do PayPal. I don't see eye to eye with paypal and their policies. LOL

Be careful using 6LX6 in place of other 12 pin compactrons. On a 6LX6, pin 7 is connected to the filament internally and can short out the filament supply if the socket has pin 7 grounded or used for a tie point. Some say to just cut pin 7 off and use one anyway but I have found the little nub that's left can still contact the socket in some cases. Pin 7 has NC in all the other Duodecar compactrons so they don't have this problem.
