You're right. I punched in the wrong number. I ought to remember it better...I remember as a teen back when I lived in Florida I had a few tubes I needed at a FAWG swapmeet then I bought a restored 4 band Silvertone console with wire recorder, but no tubes (and it uses a TON). I hit up ESRC1 since the meet was in their parking lot and the total came out to some 3 figure sum...When I got home and started populating tubes I found the 6B6 I needed for some set was replaced with an incompatible 6BG6 for something like 4x the cost...I wasn't amused but let it slide and made a note to check that they pulled what was on my list properly...
