Here are Mullard EF91 6AM6s: eBay Seller: buenosaires radio: EF91, Radio, Phonograph, TV, Phone, Collectibles items on eBay.com

Here are Mullard M8161s : Mullard M8161 / CV4015 Mil. Spec. Little Dot Amp EF92 - eBay (item 280197518453 end time Feb-08-08 17:44:55 PST)

There were two more with BIN, but someone snagged them during the night!

Yeah, the first link is to a seller named Roy. In fact, I had that auction book-marked, and just pulled the trigger. I bought another pair of Mullards off of him and they are mint, still in the 'cigar rolls'. I also have a pair of Amperex Bugle Boy tubes from him. The logos are clear and crisp, like they were made yesterday.

The guy is great. His tubes are true NOS, and he ships faster than anyone else I've dealt with on ebay. A great, honest, reliable seller. I highly recommend him to everyone.

Sorry I stepped in and snatched them, but he seems to always come up with a couple of more pairs.

It's true. He has some of the best tube stock around. He charges for his tubes, but you get what you pay for, absolutely!

Dale or Roy will hopefully find them and give you a photo if required. Plus every tube gets tested too. Now thats is SERVICE!!


I have purchased from these guys also.

Called them and Dale took the cordless phone into their warehouse and told me the brands and quantities they had in stock, and took my order. I don't like to waste their time, though, so if I do call them I make sure that I place an order that is worth their time and effort.

I think his prices are reasonable, at least compared to the guy selling 'matched pairs' for LD amps starting at $26-30, plus $6 shipping. Makes Roy's tubes look like a bargain.

And I like that fact that I never have to worry about the quality or shipping. The tubes I just bought will be at my doorstep no later than this Tuesday. It's like clockwork.

I'm pretty sure the MKIII has the RCA to RCA's in it's package.
The MKII has the mini to RCA.

When did you order? I emailed him yesterday when I was buying one and he said the ordering cutoff was 6pm EST on February 2nd (Today). So I assume that if you ordered before that time it will ship before the CNY

EDIT: In his words:
Please keep in mind we will be on vacation from Feb. 4th through the 12th. Orders placed after Feb. 2nd 6PM EST will actually be delayed until the 13th to ship.

Are those any good?


See, this exactly what I thought. As soon as the other two pairs sold, he posted more.

If these are the same Amperex tubes I bought, they are NOS Bugle Boys in original boxes. I haven't tried mine yet so I can't recommend them purely on sound, but they are beautiful tubes with the ultra-cool Bugle Boy logo. And they are Amperex, so I suspect they will sound just fine.

Oh, and don't worry, I'm all set for now.

Ow, well maybe I'll be getting a surprise then!

That's the first I heard of a cut off time. Fingers are crossed.

Since they're not shipping again until Feb. 13th, I don't think there are gonna be any listings on eBay until then. I believe he's still taking orders via direct order, though they won't ship until the 13th either.

That's correct. It is up on their site. I sure could use a vacation.
