wow, you really got ripped of. Your old amp probably had more tubes, at least 4 power tubes which can double the cost. This deville i think has two 6L6 and three 12AX7. So around $15 for each power tube and $13 for each preamp tube. and rebiasing should not cost more than $20 for two power tubes. The preamps tubes dont have to be biased. Two months ago I bought a Fender Princeton reverb from 1976 and retubes and biased for $140CAN, and it has more tubes. One more preamp and one recifier. When you do retube, get E-H or sovtek. Anything but rebrand companies like groove tubes.
