The boxes are new, but are the tubes inside the right ones? An RCA 12AX7A tested good on a Hickock tester can fetch >$100 in the right places. Tubes are a niche thing these days, tho, so you may have to search to find a buyer.

Other common ones in the mini range to look out for are 35W4/50C5/12BA6/12BE6/12AV6 - those are the "All American 5" and can go for decent prices as well.

Yes tubes inside are right ones, it was my dads stash. If you know anyone interested or a specific place I can put them up for sale let me know.

The best place to dump them is at a hamfest, or if you have a local audio community, they may have interest.

It's been so long since I've bought tubes, and I always get them at places like Dayton, I honestly don't know. Maybe someplace like this: https://vacuumtubesinc.com/tubeswearebuying

He answered he was interested and had a good point that the ones with red lines thru them are prob used. Of course I would have to send them to him and then he would make offer. He has a list of some and what he pays for them on the site and it doesnt seem like much.

I emailed him the pic. Guess we will see.
