Hi, I would recommend eBay as a place to offer these tubes for sale.

Regards, Jeff

 Hi everyone.
 I have sooo huge stock of CD81 nixie tubes.

 Does anyone wants them?
 I can surely say that these are so rare and
 this may be last chance to get new ones.
 These was kept in a big warehouse with
 cooldry.

 these days, russian in-16 costs around
 $6.
 And I will sell these tubes $19 per each.
 I know this is  expensive price,sorry...

 please contact me if you want them.
 I will sell them from least 10tubes.

| at this price I guess you will not sell much of them.


That can be debated all day long. The best test is to stick them on
eBay, and see what happens. Either 'Buy-it-Now' at your price of $19/
ea, or in auction format.

I stumbled across a bunch of ZM1000s about 5 years ago. A bunch, as in
well over a hundred. Not only where they still in their original
Amperex boxes, they also came in 'sleeves' of five. Shiny and new.
REALLY, New-Old-Stock, not the stuff commonly pawned off on eBay. I
sold about a hundred of them on eBay, in lots of six. I let the
auction settle the price. The 1st few batches went for ~$40, or ~$6.50
each. Eventually, they started going north of $60 per lot ($10+ ea).
Mind you that was a few years ago, before all this price inflation.

So stick them out on eBay, and see where the market goes.

Hi,

well, Ebay price strategies are always interesting - and funnily enough, 
different sellers obviously use different approaches as well.


There is this one seller from Germany, who has a LOT of these small 7977 
equivalents (over a hundred I would say, I have met him and seen his 
stock). But he makes the mistake of listing far too many of them at a 
starting price that is also rather high.


Other sellers, though, list their tubes as no reserve and speculate on 
the price to climb due to that. After they have established a price this 
way, they add several Buy-It-Now auctions. I dislike this quite 
strongly, because I think it is simply ripping off people.


The most effective approach is what the Russians do with their IN-18 
hoarding - buyers might not like it, but it is working (for them).


It's been a long time since I have sold on Ebay, I usually start the 
auction a 1EUR and see where it goes.


The bottom line is, though: $19 for a single not uncommon tube is too much.

Jens
