I was able to chat with the seller today. My understanding from our conversation was that once the ebayer p**u did a bid retraction the bid price fell back to the opening bid of $9.99. The seller said he didn't want to give away the tube - so he canceled the auction. The seller then asked me to make an offer. I suggested he relist with a higher minimum bid. Hopefully, something he's comfortable with. I'll give it another day, but so far he's not gotten back to me about my offer.

Well, he probably wants to wait and see what the good tube sells for. Perfectly understandable; but to those of us who collect and restore old TV sets there's a big value difference between a good 15GP22 and one that's gone to air. I suppose time will tell what that different may be if the seller ever decides to relist the dud.
