Some NOS stuff seems to be worth frankly insane sums of money considering they have a limited usable lifespan. Mullard, philips and telefunken appear to be among the most expensive in the EU. It seems to be the guitar market that's driving the cost rather than the hifi market. Not knowing what they are doesn't necessarily matter as there are some folk out there that seem to be knowledgeable enough to identify them by their internal construction. (plates, grids, getter and mica design and layout)I have a load of tube valves I bought several years back I never ended up using.
I don't know what they all are otherwise I'd ebay them. Likely doubled in value since then.

would be interested in what you think of them. I was considering some but then decided I didn't need them. Good reviews

@LiE what speakers are those? I'm looking for some decent speakers that aren't too massive.
Kanto YU2 with the S2 stands. I also have the Kanto SUB6 because they lack a little in the base.
New desk/mouse pad. Sour x NK_ Deskpads MX Life White/Blue.
Waiting on custom keys/cable for the keyboard and a Glorious Model D.
Would look cleaner without wires but I've decided against Bluetooth for a few reasons. I am thinking of a white rubber gromet at the top of the mouse mat in the middle for the keyboard cable.
Nice mousepad ordered one, 700x300 is a perfect size. What 65% KB is that?
If they are vintage items, the mullard and philips are probably worth the most followed by the siemens. Actual value will greatly depend on what valves they are and if they are commonly used parts. Power output valves and rectifiers are worth a lot more than signal valves as they wear out faster so vintage valves are less common.i have some mullards, siemens, phillips, some russian rockets and some chinese ones too.
they weren't cheap either i spent like £200 on them quite a few years back.
