2024-04-01 Thread Dekatron42 
Some six years ago I bought a bunch for USD$4 when they were sold in China, 
a Chinese seller offered them in boxes of 25 per box then so they weren’t 
that rare, then another eBay seller offered them for USD $49 for six 
pieces, oerhaps the same seller who sold then ti me.

Sesrch the forum and you’ll find some more information.

Re: [neonixie-l] A very rare Chinese Nixie tube '电工牌' SZ-2

2024-04-01 Thread Dekatron42 
I don't think it has any Hg in the gas, it looks very much like only Neon.

The welded wires are poorly welded and come loose easily, just like number 
3 not working on the one sold on eBay now, I have a few failed SZ-2 with 
the same problem.

Re: [neonixie-l] A very rare Chinese Nixie tube '电工牌' SZ-2

2024-04-02 Thread xuhui zeng 
Thank you for sharing! I checked my Taobao purchase history, and about 8 
years ago, the common model QS18-12 was about $7.5, QS16-12 was about $6.8, 
and QS30-1 and SZ27-1 were about $4.1. Prices may fluctuate according to 
market conditions, but I think the price you mentioned might be a bit low. 
However, there are indeed many different quotes in the market, and perhaps 
you encountered a very good deal. Back then, $4 was really a great price. 
As of now, it has become quite difficult to find SZ-2 on Chinese shopping 
platforms.
