Who will buy ?

Who will bid my bucket-o-tubes ?
two dollar minimum
who will bid on my bucket ?
just two dollars
Will you buy any electron tubes today, madam ?
Any vacuum thermionic valves, sir ?

someone has bid my bucket-o-tubes
three dollars to take it
someone has put $2 down
for my nearly full bucket
won't you consider this assortment of tubes ?
any advance on two dollars for you, sir ?

All I know is, resist the temptation to thoroughly wash those dusty tubes because the part number markings are NOT robust !  Ask me how I know :)
