Yep. Same vendor. Selling same batch of B7971's with a couple obviously bad tubes right in the photo. Listing is pickup only and he will try to get you to purchase outside of eBay. He's been reported to eBay a couple times but keeps coming back... -------- Original message --------From: Nicholas Stock <[email protected]> Date: 12/4/17 10:23 AM (GMT-06:00) To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [neonixie-l] New cazyness...

Jeff, did you relay that message to eBay? What an ass.... On Sun, Dec 3, 2017 at 10:29 AM, Jeff Walton <[email protected]> wrote:Fun! Used tubes with 0.3” digits for $999. J This is the same vendor that was selling obviously defective B7971 tubes about a month ago. There’s something off with this dealer. He seems to offer many items for pickup only in the Washington DC area. On this listing for used BD-200 tubes @ $999, he offers the tubes for shipping or: “Or cash on PICKUP in Woodstock Virginia”. EBay probably just hasn’t yanked the listing yet. When he was selling the defective B7971 tubes, I sent him a PM regarding selling items that were known defective and suggested that folks in the nixie community look out for each other. He got no bids and this was the message that I got from him: We all know the expression, “There’s a sucker born every minute” but it is unfortunate that there are listings on eBay that rely on that principle.
