Telefunken AC701k: Fake Tube?

(1/3) > >>

zerofly:
Hello Klaus, good people,

I have stumbled upon these tubes at a fair price, but, they look a little weird in aspect compared to what i'm used to.
They are clear, not black and the logo is horizontal.
i have attached some pictures.

Can these be fake? real?
Please!

many thanks.

klaus:
Without intention to brag, I've seen thousands, but never seen one like this.
Plus: "attractive price? No, I would not buy it.

zerofly:
Hello Klaus,
Yes, your probably the person who has seen more of these tubes.

Yap, sounds like rip off, i'm not going for it.

plus, when i contacted the seller regarding the aspect of the tubes i got this:

As far as I confirmed this item is unused however the supplier bought it
which made in the former East Germany 30 years ago in USA .
It would be compatible with AC701 K which made in West Germany.
We will be cover the warranty for bad tubes.
Please consider it.

Any truth in this?

thank you very much for the help!!
Kind regards,
Pedro

That seller's statement flies smack in the face of the stamped declaration of "Made In Western Germany"!
