Look at this honest 6L6GA USSR Brimar - made in Russia - offer from Langrex UK at ebay: ebay.co.uk/itm/264275971053?epid=21034361811&hash=item3d88134bed:g:IOUAAOSwXUtdemKO
Compare the center aligned white printing and the missing BVA logo. Those are rebranded soviet tubes from late 1980s to early 1990s. The tubes sold to western brands were thoroughly tested for good specs.
Seller aandrianov11 is claiming his Brimar 6L6GA are real Great Britain NOS tubes from 1950 - 1960
In his GE 6550A ebay offer, he claims they are a old tube stock from 1960s.
There was no soviet 6550A tube produced in 1960s. Russia made 6550 tubes in 1990s.
He is clever and does not use the word General Electric, but the pictures from the tube printings and tubes boxes show the GE trademark logo + General Electric
