Linlai E 6sn7 tubes

I have purchased mine from an eBay  vendor from China. I don’t want to offer advertising on the forums. PM me and I will be more than happy to share. I just don’t want to come across as anything other than a hobbyist. This I will share,when I first purchased from this vendor,they had 100% positive feedback.  It has since dropped.  I did however,purchase the new pair from them. 

Grant Fidelity are sold out. I put myself on there waiting list, if the Viva tubes aren't legit. Also Linlai website states, 6 /9 working days for delivery. Which isn't bad.

I am with you there too. I am expecting a pair of the Linlai E 6SN7s tomorrow as well. Will see what they look like when I receive them. Based on comments so far, not to optimistic that they will in fact be the real Global Elite series as the Viva ones say Globe, not Global on the tube. 

What is Vivas tube return policy?

@audioquest4life ; 

All of our tubes are 100% guaranteed to arrive as described, test as described and to be void of any sound defects including microphonics and noise. We offer a 30 day return window from the day you receive the item for all vintage tubes and 90 days for new production tubes. PLEASE NOTE - While we accept returns for basically any fault, we DO NOT accept returns for buyer's remorse which includes buyers who decide they don't like the subjective tonal signature of a tube.

All Psvane branded tubes receive a special 1 year guarantee

Any returned tube must test within 10% of the original value. Any larger variation would indicate many hours of use or abuse and voids our warranty. Email us before you return your item. We will email you a pre-paid return shipping label and will issue your refund / replace the item once it arrives back. 

I found Viva to be responsive and very willing to accept my tubes back. They arrived there today. They emailed me a return label via USPS.

The Ebay seller I used was very willing to send a replacement set that were much better and he did it quickly.  amptata_audio
