Marco may be offering the best advice, early Russians have good sonics.
But if it was me, i would inquire which type of Tung-Sol they are offering. It should be an Oval-plate for a price that high. I have one from WWII era in my preamp and paid about $380. Outstanding tube.
A new production TS is inexpensive and isn't in the same league as NOS.
