I believe I paid about $23 for shipping. I thought this was a bit steep considering it is only a 5 inch tube and doesn't weigh much. I accepted it because these tubes are not exactly something you can get at Radio Shack and finding one NOS is even better.
I was thrilled, however to discover that the tube came with a new 7 pin socket for it. The wires on my existing socket are getting brittle and can't handle being moved about.
