I have been lucky with cages. I managed to buy a large stainless steel avian adventure cage off Preloved.co.uk for £60 when OH's greys powder coated cage got tatty.
It had been used for a breeding cage then left in a corner of a shed uncleaned for 2 years and sold on the understanding it was filthy after the owner built an aviary.
A day out with picnic from Cheshire to Durham in the UK to collect. Four hours next day with a disinfectant soak, a steam cleaner and brillo pads restored it to like new.
Got a slightly smaller Stainless avian adventure that was clean for my Lory off Ebay. Just a trip up to Yorkshire for that one. Nobody else bid for it as the description was a bit vague and got it for £78.
The last one was the same cage as I got for my Lory off Preloved again and this was purchased for my new baby caique.
It was fairly new and set me back £400 and a short trip to the top of Manchester. The second two cages where F10sc disinfected and steam cleaned to be safe
Hopefully they will never need replacing.
