I didn't forget.. same issue with Australia. Worth at least considering getting a few spares of the 7236 at this price. Once a tube is rolled it starts a timer ticking. And if you ever want to get more of them you would have to pay extra for shipping.

Thanks mate, may I ask what sonic impact rolling input tubes as opposed to power tubes has? Are input tubes equally as influential on the final sound or less so? If so I'm wondering if I should get a backup set of input tubes? The seller has mailed me a replacement set of L63s, but perhaps rather than a 3rd set of power tubes, a second set of input tubes makes more sense? If so any suggestions? As always I'm all ears.
Seeing as an OTL amp is powered directly from the power tubes with no transformer in the way, the power tubes can affect the LF 339's sound more than the input tubes, especially in the bass, treble and soundstage. Throwing ideas out of nowhere I could say the power tubes affect the sound the most and the input tubes maybe half as much again or even less. Maybe it's half and half... but for sure the power tubes can completely change the sound of the amp... roll out 6AS7GA and roll in the 7236 and it goes from warm and syrupy to solid state fast punchy bass and extended treble.

Haven't head the Mullard 6080s but they seem to be good. Not as warm as 6AS7G and not 'neutral' as a 7236. How about you let us know how it sounds instead ?
If you want to see what you will become after a few years of owning the LF 339, ask ultrainferno about his supply of tubes. He owns about half of all Bendix 6080WB produced and at least 10 pairs of 7236

When I try to go to my cart on yuking09.com, I get a window that says the site has no certificate. If I ignore the warning and proceed anyway, I get a "cannot load page" error. Is the site not working?
The only other place I found that sells the 339 is shenzhenaudio for an "upgraded" version. This site gives both black and silver options but does not offer the two tube input options as yuking09 had. What the hell is happening? :/
I really want this amp but I don't know what to make of either site right now. Should I buy at shenzhenaudio even though I don't know what set of tube inputs I will get?
Some questions are asked but sketchily answered idk.
