PAIR 310A Tungsram tubes PTT for Western Electric tube amplifier

PAIR of P310 = 310A by Tungsram.

One of the very very rarest 310A versions. For German PTT use in 1951, made by Tungsram by Western Electric patents. Wonderful gold shielding on glass. In original opened boxes. Tubes are NOS and boxes cut open for testing. All the same, sold 'as-is'.

TEST and DISCLAIMER (please READ): 

Tested on a serviced and recapped TV-7 tube tester. Good starts at 30, which is said on a TV-7 to reference 65% of new. Look at the pictures. A reading of 54 or 76 thus represents much better than top specs. 

However, because no two TV-7 testers are the same (test results on two TV-7 testers can differ a little bit under or over for the same tube specimen under test) and for antique spare parts no guaranteed decades-spanning life record can ever be given, I am obliged to sell as-is. By bidding, you agree that you have understood this status. 

POSITIVE Ebay experience: 

Please, please, please do not buy if a temporary 'loan' is your objective. Your tube rolling is not mine to pay for ;-)

If you win, please enjoy these rare items. But please do not bid simply to audition the tubes in your audio set-up over which I have no control and then claim some fault or stating they are not to your taste. I will do my utmost to make you a happy buyer, please respect me as a serious fellow tube lover and bid only if you seriously want these tubes. These are antique electronic parts and so they are sold as-is! That said, if something really is wrong, please do not hesitate to contact me, because your happiness is my happiness.

Good news: 

Over the coming years I plan to thin out my beautiful tube collection of 30 years of collecting. This is therefore a private sale. I am expressly not a business entity.

Please also check my other items for sale.

Postage:

Track and trace will be sent to you.

I pack extremely well, double-boxing where needed. I will combine items if so desired.

LEGAL MATTERS:

This is a private listing and under Dutch law I am a private entity, NOT a business. I am selling part of a lifelong accumulated collection. Most of what I sell is antique and even antique electronics. NO warranties are given and all items are SOLD AS IS. Test results are given as a guide, NOT as a legal basis for any claims or perceived rights.

In these days of online buying, postal services and couriers have a tremendous challenge to get things right. I will NOT be held responsible for their failure to meet that challenge. I stand by my descriptions and if something gets ‘missing’ or ‘damaged’ in transit, it shall not be because of maliciousness or negligence on my part. I tell the truth and wish for all to be good!

Only the objects specifically described are part of this auction, nothing else in the pictures is, unless explicitly stated in the item description. Similarly, other part types mentioned for reference are not part of this auction or sale, but just used for reference to give context to the actual item for sale. The photo’s and full text body are part of the description. For your assessment, please use both.

THANK YOU and happy bidding!
