If they're worth something to somebody, I guess I ought to be hanging on to them.
For real , there are people who believe bumble bee caps have some sort of "magical" ability to give the Rock & Roll fuzzy distortion sound that will make them the next big thing . It's not your fellow vintage vacuum tube equipment restorers buying them , it's musicians in their never ending quest to pair "Art" with electronics to = rich & famous .

And to the rest of us , they're worthless , so if you can get $25 for each one of them on Ebay , by all means sell as many of em as ya got !!!!
