ktdot Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Was just going to post that myself! don't know how the prices compare to the ebay ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Me neither....I just go for the bog standard grey ones which are quite cheap. I imagine the colourful ones are going to be dearer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktdot Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I would love to have enough eggs to put in an egg box!! It takes a week to get 6. Thinking of showing the lazy madams a box of paxo and a roasting tin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomaxsmith Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I decided that getting the minimum order from somewhere like Flytes of Fancy would be a bit reckless since only one of my hens is laying, every other day! I ordered some plain grey ones from eBay as they were selling as few as 24!! Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krysia Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I found Blue ones on E-bay being sold by gemmaliciousjj I emailed to ask about colours as they advertise Blue but we have other colours and they said green yellow and pink too. It also says they will list other quatities if you are interested try http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120153741240&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123 hope that worked I have never done a link! they are £4 plus £2.50P&P for 20 boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 If my (rubbish!) arithmetic is correct Krysia, you're ebay ones work out at 20p each before p+p, the Flyte So Fancy ones work out at 10p each. Might be worth considering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaneG Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Well we just reuse egg boxes that family and friends have given to us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 If my (rubbish!) arithmetic is correct Krysia, you're ebay ones work out at 20p each before p+p, the Flyte So Fancy ones work out at 10p each. Might be worth considering And of course you could sell the excess on Ebay, and get the boxes to pay for themselves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krysia Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I don't have ebay ones I was considering it but like some of you others all my friends / family bring their boxes to me to fill. I gave my boss some the other day and she was shocked to see the use by date was April 06!!! I never look becuase I know they are just a few days old!
