Well, I could think that money (or more precisely lack of it) is a good 
enough reason but there is space for disagreement there :-)

Yeah, it's really beyond me why anyone would pay money for anything else than 
the famous trio (zm1042/z5660m, IN-18 and Dalibor's RZ568M) when everyone knows 
that size is all that matters and these 3 tubes is all you need - ever! :-)

It is really about preferences. NL tubes have really fine anode mesh made 
of thin wire, and Z566Ms have hexagonal, sturdy mesh cut out from thin 
plate. I have few american tubes and I'm in love with their transparency 
and visibility of digits.
On the other hand, Z566Ms have better digit shape. They are also bigger, 
but I think that overall look of a lamp is more important than it's size - 
that's why I think CD47 are overrated, they have weird digit shapes and the 
internal construction isn't pleasing. If I ever had one, I would sell it 
for the ridiculous price it goes for immidiately and I'd buy myself a set 
of six better looking tubes.
Still, 50$ for a new tube is too much for me, I'd prefer buying something 
cheaper or used.

I agree.  There are much nicer, larger tubes for the same price, but to
each their own I suppose.

Wow.  'just goes to show that things are worth what someone's willing to 
pay.

They're nice tubes & all, but zm1040 & z566m's sell for similar prices and 
have 50% bigger digits.

Chalk this one up to pent up demand.  They're available for much less if 
you're patient.

Madness is when you have regrets that you didn't bid on a 
ridiculously-overpriced nixie...
.then you have feelings of guilt so you buy something unusual for the 
project you'll never have time to build

They went for a ridiculous price...512 for 12 tubes. The NL821's went for over 
600

That's madness.

Well, I've been looking for these for over 2 years now! Maybe I don't know the 
right sources.
I even put a message on here and no-one was willing to sell or trade these 
nixies.
Maybe the NL-807 is not that common anymore after all.

[Dylan Distasio]

I agree, I can't figure out the market on there sometimes.  I mean it's
obvious why the larger rare ones go for a ridiculous amount, but I can't
imagine paying more than $10 each for these.

Odd really - they're a nice tube, but that's a lot of money for those.
