It was very common with tubes, too. You can find many German tubes with
the marking "G.Abl." (=Garantieabl?sung), meaning that the tube
manufacturer (e.g. Valvo) would not guarantee anything as they were sold
untested (and cheaper). They were mainly used by industrial and testing
equipment manufacturers because they tested these parts anyways.
