Looking for (2) mini top facing nixies... IN17 or US equilalent

[Tom Katt]

Building (yet another) clock and this time I'd like mini tubes for the seconds...  Attempting to locate IN17 or similar top facing tubes from a US source for shipping (I'd prefer not to deal with any international shipping/tariff issues)...  Any ideas?  eBay only has Eastern bloc supplies at the moment...

Thanks!

What are they going for these days anyway?  I bought a hundred of them some time ago and might be able to spare two or three.

A few months ago a US seller had some for $5 apiece. When that sold he put the rest up for $3 and I missed out. I'd still like to have some.

 They seem to be going for $5 - $7 each plus shipping on eBay…. I only need 2 so whatever you think is fair would be appreciated ;-)

Are these the ones with flying leads or do they require sockets?

Thanks!

A member here reached out and I might be all set.  I’ll follow up if needed.

Thanks for everyone’s assistance!
