Guest syra42 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 We are going to purchase a crate for Molly and was wondering if there are any suggestions as to where to buy it. We want a two door one that is easy to move. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest d0ggiem0mma Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I bought mine used on CraigsList. Picked up a 48 inch crate for all of $35 and it's in great condition. Way beats the $150+ you'd pay in the store! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeofNE Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I got mine on eBay. The shipping is a lot, but the price of the crate itself was insanely low, so it worked out great. All crates are easy to move, IMHO. They're not something you'd carry for a mile, but I can easily schlep it around my condo. Quote Susan, Hamish, Mister Bigglesworth and Nikita Stanislav.

Guest IrskasMom Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I borrowed a Crate from my Rescue Group and we used exactly for one Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarabz Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I got ours through Pet Edge - good shipping, good pricing but next time would definitely look at eBay or Craigslist.

Guest Smiley Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 We got ours through ValuCrate and it included free shipping, was the right size and we had it in a day or two. I think all said we spent around $100. It's nicely made too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrairieProf Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I think I ordered mine from Petco online -- they have free shipping over $50 or $60 (and a 15% sitewide sale going on right now).

Neighsayer Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Another vote for bay. One site has free shipping and many auctions at once. Some get sold for less than $50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sheila Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I guess if I were to buy a crate I would go the Ebay/craigslist first and see what was available. Why are you considering a crate for her? Is there some recent issue that you feel a crate is needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJNg Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Amazon.com has some pretty good deals on crates too. I got a 2-door 48" for $75 (including shipping).

The rescue group needs it back so thought I would look into purchasing one. It is one of 4 beds she has.....LOL not that she is spoiled.

Guest snakes Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I got both mine on craigslist much cheaper than elsewhere. Having one with two doors definatly helps (and worth the money), especially in awkwardly shaped or small rooms. Bargainpetstuff.com has a decent selection. or Dogkennels.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Swifthounds Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 You might consider an airline type crate. They can be used as a crate or can be nested together to be an open topped bed. I've never paid more than $85 for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lovemyhounds Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I have found great prices on Amazon, Ebay and Valuecrate.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
