        Does anyone know where I can find relatively cheap wire storage cubes in New Zealand??? (for bunny cage of course) I cant find them anywhere in stores here, and on amazon & the shipping and import fees are about twice what the actual cost is. Right now i have a Frankenstein cage of all types of playpens and pet store cages connected, its really ugly and id like to change it lol

          I used to live in NZ, so I was curious and did some digging on this. I was surprised that Bunnings didn’t have them, since they have a huge variety of other cube storage type things. I found a thread on another forum (https://www.rabbitsonline.net/threads/cage-cubes-grids-where-to-find-some-in-nz.60491/) that had this bit of info (keep in mind this was in 2011):

          “Bunnings do stock them, but you have to go to the right store. They can be easy to miss though, they often come shrink-wrapped in plastic and are easy to pass by on the shelf. It depends on the product, but the larger stores hold a wider variety of stock so it’s better to check those first. Otherwise, if you know the code for the product, they can check on the system or ring another store for you to see who has them at the moment. Otherwise, if you can’t drive to another store to get them, they can order them in. (I work at bunnings :p ) I was trying to find the product on the website, but can’t. However, next week when I go into work, I can get the item number and description from the shelf for those who want to be able to show their local bunnings store so they know exactly what you’re looking for and can hunt it down on the system for you. Without the item number or barcode they can’t do much for you.”

          And then later in the thread…..

          “So bunnings sell them in packs of 5 grids for $12.98, which for quantity and cost isn’t that great, but if you were to buy them online the cost of shipping would probably even out the cost anyway.

          The fineline or item number that you will need is: 2591615
          Strangely enough, when I search for the product on the bunnings website, it still doesn’t come up, so don’t bother with that. According to the website of Rubbermaid (a brand) they have a set of 3 cubes which bunnings stocks, but I’ve not seen them at our store. I could check at one of the larger stores if you like to see if we do also have the 3-cube set and see how much they are too.

          So if you ring or head into your local bunnings, you can ask them to look up the product for you with the fineline. If they’re not stocked, you can always get them special ordered in. Hope that helps

          It’s quite funny though as today I went up to the office and there were actually around 4 or 5 packs of the cubes sitting on the desk and I asked what they were for. Apparantly someone who lives about 3-4 hours away from the nearest bunnings rang up and asked them to be posted to them. I couldn’t help but think what reason someone would want that done for storage cubes except if they were after that type specifically for a rabbit enclosure
