I'm pretty sure Target, K-Mart & Big W should have them....

Double post...

If not, behind most supermarkets they have the milk crates, just snag a few... 

The Coles on Cliff St Glengowrie has stacks of them just sitting there

Just buy wooden lettuce crates if you need somewhere to store yr records.

Should cost you $2 from any fruit & veg shop as thats the deposit they pay on them.

Milk crates arent quite big enough to hold tunes. Assuming thats what Jules needs em for.

yep exactly ill check in out in the morning cheers

yeah thats ghey, i'm sure they did that deliberately too. 


I've been having heaps of problems finding crates too, I got one from the reject shop a while ago which fits records (heaps too, it's just under twice as long as a square crate) and it has wheels and a lid. A quik look at the price sticker thats still on there says $10. Maybe check it out? Take a record with you when ya go in there though, it's hard to tell if they'll fit just by looking. It's good though because you can stack em up without crushing the rekkids.

Trust me - wooden lettuce crates are the bomb.

Hold heaps of records and you can safely stack them 4 or 5 high no problems.

bunnings should have the plastic crates. i had a quick look before i left but they were about ten bucks a pop. my old man managed to track down some milk crates and the records fit in some of them as there were some different sized ones.

yeah they are tops, picked one up from an oppy last week for $4. holds heaps and they are wider then plastic crates...i dont think they are as common now though in the f+v shops.

Mitre 10 have the plastic ones, but they were like $17 each. I got a few not that long ago

yep mitre 10 or home hardware. bunning have some but they are not as solid. Also try menzel plastics on south rd probably be cheaper than the hardware stores..

I recently got the plastic 'cube' crates from K mart for $6 each....

the bunnings ones are about 15 bucks each. made by nylex so its good quality (strong) plastic

what about go-lo? or the reject shop? i got mine from go-lo when i needed em.

those lettuce crates are good though too. not as high as the plastic ones so you can get your tunes out easier.

all ill say is:
cheap = shatter easily

go the heavy duty bunnings ones for a few bucks more.
im talking from experience

i quite like the green coles bags , with the handles. they are super tuff and easier to carry ur tunes around than big heavy crates. dont hold as many but just for moving around etc are gold. those bags would almost have to be invention of the century so far.

just picked one up from there the other day.
