If they work I cart see why not.

hi, thanks for your reply.

is there a decent enough tester i can purchase that would make sense economically if these are the only tubes I have?

My wild guess would be ... a tester will be more expensive then what you will get for the tubes even when they are in best condition.
So better sell "as is" or WYSIWYG....

i will have the opportunity to buy more at auction because i attend them regularly.

If i was to invest in a tester speculatively, is there a reasonably priced one that is not vintage?

I see one from hong kong for example on ebay. I would also like to learn about this niche as I also buy and sell quality stereo stuff.

There is one:

hey,

thanks for that! Much appreciated.

I will definitely try to learn more about this kit. Would the website linked be the best resource for someone completely new to testing?
