Re: [neonixie-l] What is going on with IN18 tubes?

[Greg P]

Or maybe the supply is finally drying up after all these years?  I doubt it 
as there seems to be unlimited supply of these.  I'd assume it's more price 
fixing by the (to quote the late Jeff Thomas) "Ukrainian Tube Cartel".

Yeah!

The problem is that the value of the dollar is going down faster

than the

price of the tubes going up.   So, it's about the same.:)

I think it's more a matter of supply vs demand; people are apparently 
willing to pay $350 US for six IN-18's on Ebay. There has been a roughly 
20% drop in the value of  Hryvnia versus the dollar over the past few 
months, so the cost of IN-18's should actually be *decreasing* rather than 
increasing.

Actually, if we're talking about US dollars, it has been going up against
other currencies for the most part.

Re: [neonixie-l] What is going on with IN18 tubes?

['Terry S' via neonixie-l]

Actually, if you watch ebay, very few are selling. Lots of auctions but few 
close with a sale. The price may come back to something more reasonable.

The dollar is very strong right now, it should translate to lower prices.

And of course, the IN-18 is not a commodity. It's a scarce resource that is 
not in production. Over time the price can only average up. Demand can 
drive the price up, but supply can never really drive it down, unless a 
huge hoard is revealed. 

I started designing my Arduino based IN-18 clock a year ago. Tubes were 
about $30 then. I took a hiatus from that design and recently picked it up 
again, but it may not be worth finishing. I have my own personal stash of 
tubes, but not enough to sell kits. Do I make the PCBs and write code for 
just a few clocks? I'm not sure if the market will bear the cost of clocks 
with a $350 tube price.

Wow,
 
Guess it's time for me to start posting them although I only have a  box.  
:)
 
RE: Few being sold?
I see one auction that has sold 4 sets of the $350 batch and another sold  
18 sets at the $350 price.  So, seems strong the price has gone up.
