Selling a cage...*update*Since my lot have been relocated into different cages, I'm going to sell the boys old cage, or try to at least. Not sure how much to ask though. I paid about £110 for it last year, and it's practically brand new. It's identical almost to this one..http://www.zooplus.co.uk/kelkoo_u...p/rodents/cages/ferret_cage/95914 except the base is red. It also has an extra ledge, but not the hammock (Tomsk's got it) or the litter tray (Hovis has that). It hasn't got the stupid bottle shown either, as I went and bought a tidy one which is going with it, although it's minus that smaller tube (Lucy has it) and instead of the big dish (Lucy again), it has a smaller metal dish (or 2 as I have a spare one). It's just been thoroughly disinfected and cleaned, and is now in it's flat pack form. I don't know how much I should ask for it, as I don't want to let it go for too little, but don't want to overprice it either. Any ideas price wise?? And I'm not putting it on eBay as I still can't get my head around using it for selling, so am going to advertise it locally and via Word of Mouth. Thanks in advance for any help. |

I'm umming and aahing about finding out how much it would cost to have delivered...so I can extend my range for selling. I assume it'd be pretty pricey though eh? |

i would think courier would be expensive, and by then people would probably buy one? |

Might be worth having a look on ebay to see if there are any used ones for sale on there, to give you an idea of the price (and possibly courier costs). |

tried looking on ebay last night, can't see any other ones. Will have another look today... |

There's one being sold on eBay for £46 which is just the cage itself, minus the ledges etc. I've still got the ledges with mine, plus an extra one, also the ramp, water bottle (better one than the one that came with it), and the long, windy tube.
Anyone know where I can get courier estimates from?? |

I'm sure the big couriers like DHL and UPS will have websites. |

Well I've decided it's going for £75 or nearest offer. The one on eBay was £50 at least just for the cage by itself. So when Lucy goes to the vets tomorrow, I'm going to put up a notice in the pet shop in Ponty, in the vet's, the post office near here, and the newsagent. Plus I'll put one up in the pet shop in Porth and here. This is what I'm putting up...
