All the components offered for sale are, unless otherwise stated, at least 20 years old. Some are over 70 years old, well past their shelf life. As such they are offered with no guarantee as to their servicability or reliability. They will be authentic!
Most components are New Old Stock mainly from military establishments. All are UNTESTED. They should be good quality and servicable but there is no guarantee after all these years. I have encountered a low failure rate. It is your responsibility to ensure that the component is suitable for your intended application. You are also responsible for observing any laws or regulations regarding modifying or repairing electrical equipment where you are. Particular attention should be paid to capacitors and working voltages.
I will check things like individual bulbs prior to despatch, and batch test loose components. All items are sold on a no-return basis.
If you are not sure, don't buy it. RS & CPC amongst others do a good range of new components.........
