Default Imac YoYo?

Has anyone seen one of these? Size wise they look about the same as a Rody or Gabber Lux but they are a good price.

I saw one on ebay this morning - it's not called an Imac Yoyo in the listing but it's definitely same cage:

It looks quite good and it's got owner appeal too - shame it's not the size of the Gabber Rex though - then it would be really nice!

The deluxe one obviously has tubes which go out of the round bits.
It is incredibly cheap for that sort of cage. I quite like my Rodys for youngsters, they are so accessible. I might be tempted to buy one to see what they are like.

They are cheap - but look what I found in the same style:

Now that really tempts me! About the same size as a rex with no way they could reach the bars - and for twenty quid!!!!!!!

I think I'll order one of those when I get paid and see what they are like - wow!

My computer keeps crashing it's very frustrating.
That does look very good, I wonder how wide the holes in the top are because Cara amazed me by reaching the top of her duna....
I would be interested in those too. I can never find out the postage costs on that website though.

edit: the postal charges are £9.99 which makes it not such a good buy.

No that isn't so good - unless it's the same for two or three and you wanted two or three.....

I hadn't thought about the bar spacings either..

I think I'm going to ask my local petshops if they've any plans to stock it so I can have a proper look - it's obviously a new cage, along with the Yoyo, so they may well come in.

If the bar spacings ok and they cost around thirty quid they could be come the new Gabber Rex - seeing as the Rex is getting so hard to get hold of these days.

Definitely one to keep an eye on Julie and Gill.
PS - doesn't look like we will be needing a lot of new cages soon - pretty sure Vala isn't pregnant - but she isn't standing either and tonight is 8th night. She hasn't put on an ounce.

So I guess I may be looking for a really good either dark grey girl or good golden hmmm.

maybe it might be worth having a closer look at those cage...now what were the links again? ahhh yes....
