I have several k7000 tubes and yokes but not enough chassis's to go around. Whats the value of a k7000 tube with yoke wo the chassis? All you need is a chassis so it's plug in play. I've tested all the ones I have with a few chassis I have left.
 
The issue with tubes vs. chassis is that you pretty much need to have them picked up. Shipping tubes so they are not damaged will get pricey. I don't know what the collecting scene is like in Alabama and what your options are for getting them to folks.

I personally think tubes are as valuable if not more than the chassis (since you could technically recreate the chassis whereas the tube is pretty much impossible). Naturally, this varies depending on the condition of the tube (e.g. burn). If I was going to hoard monitors, I would hoard tubes first.

As for an actual $$ amount, the market will tell you if you post them on the high side and then come down until you get a buyer.
 
I have several K7000s here, but they're in various states of untested condition and I believe many will need caps/flybacks. though I think I have 2 or 3 complete. I don't remember how many 19" I have, but most are 25". also have I think 2 8 pin neckboard models in the mix.
 
This is a classic "depends on demand". I've been looking on Ebay occasionally for 19 inch K7000s that are burn free and complete they fluctuate 400 to 500 shipped. Keep in mind they come with working Chassis, which fluctuate also on like 125 to 150. Due to the sort of, scarcity of parts I wouldn't say that the tube and yoke themselves would be worth more by themselves as they would be paired working with a chassis. So instead of 250 to 350 I would say 150 to 200, maybe less maybe more depending on the buyer. These are just my current observations relating to Ebay as TVs confirmed to be compatible with K7000 series chassis that I've researched tend to run that much shipped as well.
