Ty Beanie Bear Display Boxes.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew where i could get hold of some TY Beanie Bear Display Cases/Boxes.
Heres an example/picture of what i am looking for:

[Sorry its a link & not the actual picture, having trouble with uploading atm.]


I need about 15-20 i would say.

I've had a look on Ebay, but can only seem to find cyclinder type ones and there was only 3 available. I also used Google but the only 2 things i came up with were
(1) American sites which didnt ship abroad, &
(2) One dodgy looking UK site where it cost £47.50 for 20!!! [Dont want to pay this.]

So Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

    Nooooo! They're still popular, and the rarer ones can reach good prices on auction sites. If nothing else, I'll take the lot off your hands, save you that trip to the car boot sale!

    I dont think they are that popular, the wife has over 200 in the loft, and the local shops stoped selling them due to lack of sales and she stopped because they are expensive when they bring out so many, she has got alot of rare ones she is going to give to our daughters when they get older

    I have over 500 some quite valuable. I use to have a stall at a market but dont have the time any more. If anyone wants them just let me know.

    I also have some official TY square boxes, about 15 i think up in the loft.

    I live in Leicestershire.
