I think you will find it is all subsidised in china, how else are they
going to take over the world?
Seriously though you will be buying EXACTLY the same component (with
exceptions of course) look on any item you have it will generally say
'made in China'. I do a fair amount of buying/selling
I dunno, I like it that your username is lucky. :D
I have purchased some VERY dodgy power supplies from china on ebay. I
mean firehazard dodgy. Now I only buy them from reputable sellers. I
figure it will save me the house fire.
Of course, there is always the classic fake chinese capacitors

Adam,
I think the capacitor photo is a Hoax. Also this one:

probably fake photo - not even right capacitance, let alone voltage.
Too simple to detect.

Yes, what would you expect. Stuffing an honest 50V/6800uF inside
a 50V/6800uF can, would even be more insane.
Thinking about it, it could be worse, because the photo does not
tell us what is inside the 35V/2200uF ;-) Further investigation is
needed.
But I agree, this photo is probably a
A classic one, though. The best hoax photographs are the sort where
everyone deep down thinks that this sort of thing could really happen.

Did you alreday found out the EZ10B will work too ?
I think to make adapters from old octal tube bases.

I suspect that this was intended as a spare part as part of providing
the customer with a complete line for spares, but still it is amusing to
see a Westinghouse Nixie.
Box is Canadian Westinghouse who did have a few practices that differ
from US Westinghouse.
Notice the website on the photo?

Yes, it will, with a couple of changes. The EZ10B is spec'd for a
minimum supply of 500V, but I found it will work if the supply is a
solid 450V or higher. So measure the 450V to see
Charles, that is a really nice example of reprinting.
But frankly, many tubes that we see are reprinted, for example I am not
even sure if Siemens produced their tubes themselves.
But still .. You can be SURE! if its Westinghouse.
Yes, loved that phrase just like you :-)
