The first one I came across was at a stall at a fund raising event and resulted in my first CBG. I bought several others off ebay since and prices vary - I generally will not pay over £8 per box including P&P and they come up fairly frequently at this price. I have recently bought a couple of these boxes (2 for £16 from a great seller his current listing is here)

They arrive brand new in top quality packaging. I have yet to chop into one yet so I don't yet know how well they will work - also they have a felt fabric attached to the bottom which I will need to try and remove. I plan to have a go at one of these boxes soon after my current project - a six string resonator using a 7inch cone using a slightly bigger slide box is finished.

At 11:23am on September 21, 2009, Nick said…: ok.
i'll see if she lets me, and i'll get back to you.

At 11:16am on September 21, 2009, Nick said…: best for me would be cash in the mail, if you could get USD
the only other option is that my mom has paypal.

At 11:05am on September 21, 2009, Nick said…: actually im sorry.
i just measured the boxes, and they're slightly larger than i thought. the shipping cost would be about 30 for the both of them.
i don't know if that's ideal for you, but if you pay for the shipping i'll be happy to ship them to you.

At 10:55am on September 21, 2009, Nick said…: Hogs, the shipping is (estimating the weight) around $15 USD. all together would be about 17.
so it's your call
