I got a 5BP4 this morning from Fair Radio. It was packed in a non-box
made from random pieces of cardboard (five of them) taped together, barely
big ennough to contain the tube which was held in with crumpled packing paper!
Argggghh. However, it works like new (Finally! are really good one) and was
only $51. My TT-5 is now watchable.

Remember, "God is just a prayer away". They were praying the tube would get to you undamaged. Fair Radio is still using that slogan.
Maybe we're doing something wrong!
