What are the names of the tube suppliers you use in restoration efforts? I have three tube caddies full of tubes that I want to sell. I have a lot of tubes from the 60s through the 80s, but there are some from the 50s as well.

You might be better off just listing them on Craigs, FB Marketplace, or Ebay. Tubes are like baseball cards: most of them have little value with the occasional "home run" in the lot.

Generally, audiophool tubes bring the most money.

How about a tube supplier for color TV tubes, such as 6JE6, 6BK4, etc.? (I know I'm in the wrong group, but I didn't want to add another thread)

They’re gonna be hard - the ham/CB guys sucked them up for the outputs, and for whatever reason 6bk4s are pricey

Depending on the numbers you have, you might have to give them away.
