Case, who did you talk to and when? VDC's tube division shut down about 18 months ago, they threw out 60,000 tubes. Mainly consumer stuff I'd think, but unless stock got transferred to Florida, it's all gone now.

Yeah mate i remember that, but not anything this far up the tube food chain was thrown out apparently.

Gina is who i spoke to, and as Ron rightly stated, yesterday, AND today!!! Laughing
