The standard fine print – please readbefore offerding:

Economy shipping does not include POBoxes, I must have a street address. If you insist on shipping to a PObox you must pay all shipping expenses – sorry but I just can not pay more toship than many items plus shipping bring.

Please make sure that your address iscorrect with PayPal.FedExand international shipping requires a phone number (so the driver can contactyou) and if you don’t send it to me there may be a delay in sending - if youdon\'t include it and your address is not correct there may be delays.Especially overseas buyers - please update your PayPal information toinclude the phone number - even if you email it to me I have to go look to findit and it may delay shipping.

I will answer/invoice as soon I can but it may be one ortwo days after your email or the sale end because of my travel/work. In thepast I haven’t mentioned this but recent circumstances requires me to publishthis: On many items, especially vacuum tubes, there will be ultravioletink marks. They do not show in normal light and while durable, they can becleaned off, especially with ammonia cleaners. They must be visible on anyreturns. Regrettably a few people will buy good stuff and then try to returntheir bad items for refund. If you are surprised that anyone would attemptthis (and so many other not-so great ideas) it is unfortunately the worldtoday. Any such attempts will be reported to and any otherauthorities.

I have printed a spiral-bound copy of the manual and the supplement which will be included. If you google \"Modified Hickok I-177 Tube Tester\" there is a Flicker picture of a simliar unit - not as well done as this one. I suspect there is an article somewhere on how to modify this but I don\'t know of it. This was very professionaly done (he was a Western Electric engineer) but it is a modification - I don\'t have the details on how to use it.
