Looking to buy some valves from a German Ebay seller and thought I’d run the text through translation, to establish if they’ve been tested

“Wir waren für sie auf Achse und haben eine große Menge an tollen
Elektro - Röhren gefunden.
Radio, Sende, Verstärker und andere Röhren finden sie hier in der Zeitreise
4 Röhren Valvo, ITT, Tungsram ECC 82
Für sie geprüft, damit sie nicht die Katze im Sack kaufen!
Versandgewicht: 500 g”

Which Google decided meant

“We were on the move for her and have a great amount of great.

Electro tubes found. Radio, transmitter, amplifier and other tubes can be found here in the time travel
4 tubes Valvo, ITT, Tungsram ECC 82

Tested for them, so they do not buy the cat in a poke!
Shipping weight: 500 g”

Ermmmmm ... that’s that cleared up then. Buy it now!! :lol:

Looks like they've been tested to me - you won't be getting a cat in a poke.


.... 'Die Katze im Sack kaufen' which means to buy the cat in the bag. The purchase was somehow hidden, not completely or honestly revealed. You are not really sure what you bought!

Difficult to get a cat through customs these days I’d have thought. Even in a bag.

Cute, though.

Have you been watching the big cat programme on bbc J? It’s superb. Last week, with the smaller wild cats, Pallas’ cat, what a dude

Apparently 55% of Internet streaming is porn and 32% cat videos.

Who cares what the remaining 13% consists of!

How would cat porn look as a Venn diagram?
