Hey folks, I am looking for a couple Riker Boxes for my cabs & wraps, seems it would make it easier to move them around and display.... Anyways.....

Does anyone know where I can get some... the ones I want are the 14 1/2 x 8 x 1 size and I have found some but the shipping is horrendous and I have to buy at least 4 of them and that was from the cheapest place I found. but no one locally has them that I can find.... any & all help is always appreciated... thanx people !!

I recently bought 2 cases of Riker boxes from this guy for my small fossils. He has good prices, bunches of different sizes and quick shipping. www.ebay.com/sch/alumcase/m.html?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEFSXS%3AMESOI&_trksid=p2053788.m1543.l2654

Genuine Riker mounts aren't cheap, but after a day of searching, these were the best prices I found. There are Chinese made "Riker" mounts, but I've heard they're cheaply made and fall apart.

I bought 2 cases of the 16X12X2 boxes for my fossils. 5 Riker boxes per case. $50.00 per case, but they were on special when I ordered them. Paid somewhere around $40.00 per case. If you watch the Ebay sellers, they run special offers quite often.

I actually found the 14.5x8x1 boxes I wanted for $6.95 ea., got 3 of them shipped for 26.15... not complaining as it was cheaper than Ebay prices!!
Will get 3 more in a couple weeks... the nicest part is that the boxes come in a box filled with the cushion material that's in the boxes, to protect the boxes being shipped and I have extra material in case I need it for a box.... very cool!!

I'm debating getting a couple gem jar boxes for some smaller cabs, ear rings size, I want to try doing... made plenty of the larger size cabs, but none small and that might be a good way to display them.
