	Just took a quick look at some tube dealers' web pages.  Prices for
810's run from $55.00 (fil OK but not tested) to $110.00 to $180.00 new
in original carton.  845's run from $110.00 to $375.00 used, and the
only new listing was $675.00!!!!!!!!  Hundred bucks with right of return
is not a bad price at all..
