Yes.  Some years ago I tried to buy a BC-223-A and a BC-223-AX from a ham in 
AZ.  He informed me I could have the carcasses after he removed the tubes as 
the "audio afficionados" (AKA audiophools) wanted them and he was selling them 
separately.  VT-62A (801A) and VT-63 (43).  And BC-654-A's are most often 
found missing the 307A's.  Don't know any other reason why this would be so than 
audiophools.
