ARC VS110 tubes


I will be changing my tubes on my VS110 in the near future. Unit is 1.5 years old and bought new from an ARC reseller. Should I buy factory tubes from my ARC dealer or the same model from some other tube vendor (such as TheTubeStore.com). I was told that factory tubes are perfectly balanced for my amp... not so with after market vendors. BTW I have no interest in tube rolling at this time.

I noticed that when buying from ARC tubes are more than twice the price than online vendors, why is that so?

Thanks for your reply

Do you know why ARC tubes are so expensive?
