I don't judge that seller. He might just not know what he had, tubes could 
also be stored improperly, without any protection - that's an often 
problem. To bad, he didn't describe them as "untested". Why the description 
was "like new"?
The positive thing in my story is, that he didn't make any problems with my 
claim - refundation is accepted, I'm just waiting for the money to 
physically show up on my account.

Bartek.

BTW I like buying untested nixies. I bought many Z566M, Z573M, LC513 and 
similar for pennies. ;)
