Buy on eBay from a seller with decent feedback, pay via Paypal, and don't hesitate to leverage the various buyer protection policies to keep your investment safe. Many of the sellers there are from Russia/Ukraine anyway, so the tubes are generally coming from the same place. You might pay a little more than going direct, but if you're looking to buy a clock-full of IN-18, that's getting into the kind of financial input that most people wouldn't chuck around with complete indifference. My personal experience over some years and a range of transactions is that I've yet to have a significant problem with the well established nixie sellers on eBay. Occasionally they screw up or the postal service gets in a mess, but that can happen anywhere and as long as it's put right quickly and without quibbling, that's fair enough.
