    Yeah shipping is the most expensive part, like 2-3 times the cost of the product. I ordered from them, 1/6 the cost of buying pinkies locally and that includes the shipping cost!

    They are nice friendly folks and the shipping charges (2 day delivery with 5 days worth of dry ice) are far superior to many other online feeder companies. A good deal.

    I'll still consider, but does anyone know of a cheaper source?

    That's why if you just bite the bullet and order a hundred dollars worth of mice, the shipping becomes a much easier to handle expense. Divide the shipping by several hundred, and it works out much cheaper per mouse.

    I found a buyer locally with some corn snakes, I sell him pinkies at .50 each, and he buys quite a few, that helps out a lot too.

    I now get mine locally, and they're real nice, reasonably priced, and I can pick them up by subway
    before that I was loyal to themousefactory.com, because I have never once been disappointed with the quality of their rodents, and that was worth it to me to pay slightly more than what most internet rodent suppliers charge, after I ended up with some quite less than satisfactory shipments during the time when I was still trying places out

    Then it's basically not even worth bothering. I can't spend that much at once either. They make is sound like really good prices and you'll be saving money but you start adding it up and well, you find out that your savings evaporate unless you're placing large orders. That's fine for someone who spends that much each month anyway, but it's just not for the small scale keepers.
