Buds, I'm doing some "de-hoarding" here and have some NOS JAN Phillips and GE 6L6 tubes. I was going to post these in amps and accessories or on Ebay but thought I'd consult the experts first. I have no idea where to price them. I'm guessing tubes are pretty hard to sell online.

[bWhat are these worth? [/b] Fair to good deal range?

Back story.... Around 18 years ago, I worked at a vintage guitar store and occasionally the owner would score some NOS tubes. I used to play a Blonde Bassman that I re-tubed with a set from the same haul. Sounded amazing, so I bought these and stashed them. These were my back up sets that I never got to using because I sold the amp before it needed service. I always thought I'd build an amp and put these in them..... that dream is about to graduate high school, so I figure it's time to move on. Very Happy

I had them tested a couple months back, they all tested good per the amp tech. I didn't have the foresight to write down their readings (dummy). They're not perfectly matched sets, or anything super fancy like that.

Thanks in advance for your input!

Check out https://www.kcanostubes.com or http://www.hitestguitars.com to see what they are worth. The Philips are 6L6WGB, not the 6L6GC variant that handles higher plate voltage and are usually more expensive.
