No drama - all is fair etc etc etc!

I am just two short for a project - if you ever find that you have 
spare!

I am currently working on a 12 digit smart socket based project for other 
displays - I've done a bit with Smart Sockets over the years - if you end 
up going that route I'd be happy to compare notes.

Sorry bud, if I knew it was you…… Ummm, Ok, I would still have bid on them.  
Heh.
Finally, after many years of waiting on them, they appeared on ebay (at least 
that I have noticed) and barely got them because of the UK only listing.

I’m excited to make ‘something’ with them.

I bid too (I am in the UK and I was aware of their provenance and I live just 
20 minutes away from them!) - it was interesting watching the numbers going up!

I'd be fairly confident that they were all good.

Well done on outbidding me ;-)

They are very nice tubes when lit up. They've gone to a good home (presumably
