[Boatanchors] Tube prices

[Mike McCarthy, W1NR]

845's are revered by audiophiles, especially in Japan.  There are current 
manufacture Chinese 845's being made for cheap.  That's probably what went 
for $51.  But vintage NOS 845's from some manufacturers are commanding 
astronomical prices because of their rarity and demand.
