Since I trust all of your opinions here I wanted to post pics of the cage that I won on ebay for $80 and I wanted to see what you all thought about it ... there are pics attached. I just wanted to know if you looked at this and you might see something that is just really bad about it or something that I missed ... and I know that you guys know this but I just want to restate that I am putting a SC in this ...

Here are the dementions ... Width is 24 inches, depth is 22 inches and inside height is 38 inches ... oh wait (google "english to metric converter" ... ) ok, it's 61cm wide, 58cm deep and 97cm tall. There is a 6 inch (15cm) seperation between removal pan and the bottom of the cage

Sorry, Just kidding.
Yes they are very cheap, almost too cheap. I will post up pix as soon as I bolt the 2 huge ones together.

Oh please dont say that.
Now Im scared.
I now have 2 cages the same.
One I bought already constructed (500 bux), and then the one I saw on Ebay, the big one.Its in 2 boxes at the front door. 2 huge scarey boxes. Will I need tools? I have few tools. Will I need patience? I have little patience. Will it take common sense? I will get Debbie to build it.

Yip both ma cages came frae ebay and I think they are fandabidosi...I also built them all by myself. Myself being a mature lady entering that uncertain time of life .... soooo a monkey with one eye and a sprained wrist should find it unchallenging:(
The prob was, the first was so big once built it will forever remain in that room a shrine to my number dyslexia ..cause it wont fit through doors or windows...

Hence second purchase :D Roxys mobile home aka punishment block.

I didnt need tools. there was an alan key supplied.
I got my next door neighbour to do it, so I didnt need patience or common sense.
