Buy all my valves from them (or www.tube-town.net another great site, TT cabs are highly recommended!!) as well as a few other and ends.
Haven't one of their valves fail yet, the power valves come in pretty well matched sets (usually within 10mA, which is good enough), and they've a great selection of modern production and NOS valves available in stock.

Anyone know how much these guys charge for shipping? Couldn't find any info on the site, but they seem to be cheaper even than eBay sellers (not counting Hong Kong or dodgy US sellers). Must get me a fresh set of power tubes.
Incidentally, if anyone has any recommendations for a particular brand of 6L6 for a valveking that'd be handy. If it makes any difference, that is...
