Sourcing 6FJ7 in Europe?

[Tom-s]

Any suggestions for retailers that sell 6FJ7's in Europe?
I'm really having a hard time finding these locally so i could buy back-ups when needed.

Most American sellers can ship you tubes using USPS flat rate boxes.

Otherwise, there have bee a few on eBay that are located in Europe.

I've looked. But will sure look some more.

If you find a good seller let me know.
The stores I've found until now either have only 1 tube in stock or horrendous shipping costs.

There is a seller on Ebay (radio-antigua) in Spain who has the 6FJ7 listed at €4.50/piece.
Although many USA sellers have stock at around US$5, USPS international shipping rates start at around US$20, so is significant if only purchasing cheap tubes.

I've checked some of the bigger tube sellers that I am aware of in Europe (Langrex, Billington Export, Electols) and none list the 6FJ7.

Thanks Chris.
At the time I was searching the shipping calculation for at least one US vendor apparently wasn't working and only showed UPS for > 100$. Which is obviously way too much.

Any suggestions for USA sellers then (to buy a few backup pairs in one go)?
I contacted a lot of EU sellers (including the guy on ebay), none have pairs for me.

Edit: Found a pair Zenith (Sylvania made) black plates on ebay Canada. Ordered those. Now have a spare pair.
