I found this guy some time ago and i am assuming he is still in business.been some time since I bought tubes. HiFi guys liked to get stuff from him. His prices were better than most. Not the fastest but the quality was good. He took cards too..

Re: Hi Test Guitars regarding Trainwreck tube selection
I've had great luck with him, he's a straight-shooter. A walking encyclopedia on NOS tubes. I called about 12AX7 and EL84 choices for AC30's, and he schooled me on how the different brands would affect the overall tone, but also how the different years/production batches of the same manufacturers would differ...He LOVES to talk AC30's. Tell him what your using now, what you're looking to change about the sound, and he'll point you in the right direction...Fair prices considering his stock is new in original boxes

First 25 years of playing, I never got along with EL84's...Now I think, WHAT THE HELL WAS WRONG WITH ME????

This should be a sticky in the trainwreck file section.
