That was well spotted Joe - they look excellent quality - I've ordered eight for a tenner post free.
He has lots of other interesting stuff too in his 'shop'.
At the NVCF, several stalls were asking £1.00 (or even £2.00!) for unboxed valves in dodgy condition (some had lost their markings or had loose bases), which people were rummaging through as if they were knobs, looking for an elusive untested - possibly (if not probably) duff valve. Can't say I blame the stallholders for trying to maximise their income and If I'd have found suitable ones to rob the bases from I might well have ended up paying as much as eight new gold plated ones on a slow boat from China!
