I used EL 34 Tubes for my VTL Deluxe 225 monoblocks (also now for sale here) for almost 20 years. During that time, I went through periods of "tube rolling"  when I was sampling various brands of tubes to see which sounded best to me.  When I found a brand I liked, I often purchased a spare set.  I usually purchased tubes in "match quads" or "matched pairs." As a result, I now have 168 EL 34 tubes I would like to sell.  I have pictures of the tubes below.   Many of the tubes are in boxes (EH and Sovtek) were never used, others were very lightly used. The SED Winged C tubes  (the most expensive) are in boxes and had very light use (only a few hours).  It possible that a very small number of these tubes may of "blown" and do not work, but no more a than a handful (5). If you have a tube tester you will be able to determine their strength, but I am selling them "as is." since I can't test them.   If you were to purchase all of these new, they would cost $3,400 (assuming only $10 a tube for the Tesla, VTL and Phillips tubes for which I could not find prices).  I will sell them as batch for $1600 or best offer.  Or if you want to make an offer on only a subset of them, I will consider it. 
Here is the list of tubes by brands along with the new prices for these tubes that I got off the internet today and my best estimate of their usage:
20 SED Winged "C"  EL 34s -   all in boxes, very lightly used - $59.95/tube new   
30 Electro-Harmonix EL 34s  - all in boxes, 50% very lighted used/50% unused - $19.95/tube new
55 Sovtek EL34s   - 36 in boxes, 50% very lightly used/50% unused -  19 not in boxes and moderately used  -   $16/tube new
16 Phillips EL34s  - not in boxes, moderately used   (can't find new price)
22 "VTL"  EL34s  -  not in boxes, moderately used   (can't find new price)
16 Tesla  EL34s  -  not in boxes, moderately used   (can't find new price)
