SHIPS FROM THE USA

We are very pleased to offer this unique and extremely useful product. These little guide key savers will repair virtually any broken guide key on an octal vacuum tube. Simply line up the broken guide key mark on the base of the tube with the guide key on the socket repair unit. Put some silicon glue in between the base and saver, let it dry and wipe of the excess glue and you have a tube almost good as new. No more accidentally installing your tubes with broken guide keys the wrong way!

These are also great for tube dealers who want to tell their good tubes but don't want to risk having their customers install the tubes incorrectly. This listing is for 6 pieces but we have many in stock, order as many as you need.

Shipping

WE COMBINE SHIPPING - EVEN IF YOU ACCIDENTLY OVER-PAY FOR SHIPPING, WE WILL REFUND YOU THE DIFFERENCE!

One Day or LESS Handling Time

Domestic & International buyers can choose USPS First Class Mail or USPS Priority Mail.

USPS First Class Mail is our default shipping method. Other options available only by request.

Typical transit times:

Domestic USPS First Class Mail: 3-5 Days, includes tracking.

Domestic USPS Priority Mail: 1-3 Days, includes tracking.

International USPS First Class Mail: 3-6 weeks but up to 3 months! - NO TRACKING.

International USPS Priority Mail: 6-10 Days - Includes Tracking.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS - READ

ALL international orders will be shipped by USPS First Class Mail International by default, which is the cheapest method at $12.99. This shipping service is very cost-effective, but you will not be able to track your package. It usually takes 3-6 weeks for a First Class Mail International package to arrive, but can take UP TO 3 MONTHS FOR DELIVERY.

We guarantee all of our shipments, but we do ask that our customers wait 3 months before we grant a full refund due to a lost package. We have shipped thousands of items internationally using First Class Mail and while we have had plenty take months to arrive, we have almost zero packages ever go missing.
DEPENDING ON YOUR COUNTRY'S POLICIES, YOU MAY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IMPORT TAXES WHEN ORDERING OVERSEAS FROM US. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY TAXES, DUTIES, OR CUSTOMS FEES. WE WILL NOT FALSIFY THE VALUE OF AN ITEM TO AVOID CUSTOMS TAXES. DOING SO IS ILLEGAL AND CAN RESULT IN SEIZURE OF YOUR ITEM.

Terms & Guarantee

Payment is due within 4 days of purchase.

All of our tubes are 100% guaranteed to arrive as described, test as described, and sound as they should unless otherwise noted in the description. We even guarantee our tubes to arrive without having any sound-quality issues like microphonics or noise.

Any returned tube must test within 10% of the original value. Any larger variation would indicate many hours of use or abuse and voids our warrantee.
