Hello everyone, I've recently started to seriously collect nixies. As they become less available (and more expensive), the chances to get used tubes sold as NOS increase.
I've bought some "NOS" 122P224 off eBay and I'm pretty sure they're actually used, because of the "silvering" on the side and below (see photos). There are probably already a lot of posts on here explaining how to identify used nixies (visually and by measuring). I've searched but without much success. Could someone please point me in the right direction? I don't want to falsely accuse the eBay seller... Thanks.
