I've had bad/mixed luck with Ebay. Believe it or not, people will
actually try to take advantage of audiophiles.

The best luck I've had is at my local electronic salvage store. They
have a general disdain for audiophiles as well, IME, so act like your
building a ham radio or something :-)

Repairmen bring them in by the crate sometimes. The one I frequent also
has an incredible tube tester with about 50 socket types, so you know
what you're getting (they'll let you bring your own tubes in as well).
His prices are $10 for most unbranded, $20 for most USA, $30 for the
exotic stuff. If you know tube markings pretty well, you'll find some
of the $10 ones are worth more than the $30 ones. 

They are designed to be easy to replace, when cool.
