 |
|
I have a chance to buy a counting instrument that has 5 Burroughs 5441A Nixie tubes that work, for about $35.
Are these nixies worth the price?
There is not much else of value in the machine.
Thanks. |

Thanks for the tip, JAC.
What would you pay, if you wanted them?
I might offer him less, if they're worth something to a collector. |

| If the instrument works, then keep it as it is. I have a DVM that uses nixies (from 1975) and I use it at my workbench. |

Used, about $2.50 each. |
