Great site for Mullard and Telefunken`s cheap

Found this guy on line and bought from him a couple times. I just bought his last 3 long plate Mullard ECC83`s for $35 a piece, but he said he has a huge stash of short plates for $30. I think the Tele smooth plates are about the same price. He tests everything and is an easy guy to deal with. Just a heads up for those who don`t like the Ebay game. His site is: www.commonsenseaudio.com
I know there are quite a few of you out there who would like to try the old stuff, and this is the 1st guy I found to sell at an affordable price.

 

Hey thanks Dan, good to hear from you as well. I told the guy I put up a post about him here and that I hoped he had a good supplier for those Tele`s. He said he has over a hundred in stock, and at $30 for a ribbed plate and $35 for a smoothie, I must have bought about 15 of them in the past and they all worked perfectly. For some reason he doesn`t list the Mullards, but they`re $30 each, which I think is a good deal since GT wants almost that much for their copy. Take care buddy!

 

Verry funny, I would NEVER post here on a RIP artist, on the contrary, I have been repramanded on many sites for some raw dealings I`ve had. Before you question the guy`s honesty, why don`t you call him or deal with him, or show where you heard this, then post your replies with some webpage links to back it up. If you think I am full of SHI#, then check out my feedback under classic-rock at ebay. You have very limited posts, and I HATE to be rude, but unless you got ripped yourself, what is the purpose of your post besides some unidentified BS you heard. All the tubes I got from him were top notch with a 10 day guarantee to boot. I live in NH which is quite a distance from him, so have no reason to give him praise except for the great tubes I`ve got from him. PLEASE post the complaints you mentioned, I`d love to hear them, as I was just trying to give the members here a chance to pick up some old tubes at a more than reasonable price that are GUARANTEED. Try getting that on Ebay, unless you are another NOS seller that doesn`t like the competition. I would NEVER put up a post on someone I didn`t trust. That`s a fact, check out my FS post on my Marshall Studio where I refuse to sell to dealers. Kindly respond to who you know that got ripped, and I will ask him when he gets back from Thanksgiving vacation, and post his reply here. BTW, I`ve sold a few amps with his tubes and everyone raves about the tone, and I CAN POST them. Sorry to be so rude, but I believe your info is incorrect. Pete

 

That`s great Dan, glad you had great results like I had. Sorry I bought his last 3 Mullard long plates before I posted....hehehe. Did you get any of his Tele smoothies for $35? I just put a couple in my Naylor and they sound incredable. Sorry I waited until I got his last Mullard long plates before I posted......not.........hehehe

 

59model here, I don`t appreaciate your comments as I didn`t do any panty twisting on this one. The reason I got defensive is because I would only post here on someone who was trustworthy, and I have done business with a few times, and know of others who have gotten the same quality service as I`ve had. Basically, I don`t want to be known as someone who would advocate doing business with someone who is less than reputable. You`ve heard my testimony as well as another member, yet want to get paid for your service of finding the negative links to this guy. I believe in sharing information 1st hand and helping others by giving 1st hand accounts or at least a link to some before I post, and I don`t ask for anything in return as I`ve learned quite a bit here from others, and would like to give back my fair share. That`s all, and it wasn`t personal, it was just after dealing and hearing about this guy (all positive), I wanted to see some negative opinions 1st hand, the same way I and others have done. No big deal, and my temper won`t flare. BTW, if you want to get personal, kindly take it off the site and email me direct. I only asked for proof, and won`t resort to name calling as you have. I`m very stable, and would encourage you to contact me before posting like this again.

 

Sorry people, I`ll delete this thread if it brings negative attention to this site. That was not my intension. Let me know if you think that should be done, and I`ll get rid of all this BS. I was just trying to show a good tube vendor.

 

Hi, who`s from HC? I`ve never posted there before. And thanks for the positive comments, I appreaciate it. After getting all the tubes I needed, I just posted this guy for the members here who like old tubes. To get a Mullard or Telefunken that is tested and guaranteed for $30-35 is all I wanted to share with this group. AND, I haven`t heard any negative reviews here yet. The 1st sign of a bad deal with proof will make me take this post down after I contact the dealer. Once again, sorry if I offended anyone, and just wanted to give back my fair share after all I`ve learned here.
