Where to buy orchid Flasks.

Hi, just wondering if anyone has any info on the best & cheapest place to buy good quality orchid flasks, in Aus or overseas?

On eBay there's a grower in Thailand who ships worldwide. Their name on eBay is bomb322050. They list their flasks at 99 cents, but they charge 60 bucks for shipping, which mildly annoys me that they don't just list them at what they want for them and charge a normal shipping rate, but it is what it is. I've never bought from them, so I'm not sure about the quality, but that's all I know. 60 bucks seems kind of spendy for a flask to me, but I've never seriously compared flask prices, so that could be reasonable for all I know.

Yes I agree with Ron on:

Index

And I agree that without an import license you can't just import so you need to consult with someone like Keva.

also........

Easy Orchids

There are other people who don't have a website but do import flasks.
