Default Best place to buy a wodent wheel (or 2nd hand?)

I am currently pet-sitting my friends syrian hamster. She is young and super active and i feel sorry for her as she has such a useless wheel and small cage she is just not getting the exercise she needs.
Anyway she is now borrowing my old syrians' wodent wheel - he is old and does not really use it much. He lives in a 3 storey mansion so I am sure he can do without for a short while...
Would like to buy a new one though. I guess I need the 8" one.
Where is the best place to buy from? seen one for £19.50 but hoping to spend a bit less...

This Sugar Glider site is the cheapest place I've seen the 11" Senior size sold, but with very limited colour choices. The only way to choose colours that I know of is ordering direct from Transoniq.

Thank you - I need an 8" I think, it's just a normal sized syrian... I did see that website - just wondered whether there was a cheaper option. I think I paid about £17 but that was 2 years ago...
She is loving the borrowed wheel! Some people just don't do their homework!

i'd try looking on ebay (however I just looked and there was nothing), or there's a wodent wheel look alike, the trixie wheel, which is available cheaper (although I've heard the quality is definitely less)
This is the cheaper 8" version on ebay and equine canine feline if youd rather buy from an actual shop.

Other than that the only place in the UK for ACTUAL wodent wheels is pet planet, and a girl waited for 3 months for hers, and it arrived without half of the pieces, so they don't seem that great with them. Users on here order from transoniq. but obviously ordering internationally takes time.. and probably costs what you don't want to spend!

I've ordered from Transoniq twice now and their prices are pretty similar to everywhere else. I love the fact you can choose colours and it doesn't actually take that long to arrive even though it's from USA.

Ever considered the Karlie Wonderland Wheel? It's what I have and I love it. It's also cheaper. I think.

However you do need to plastikote the wonderland, otherwise it's useless if the hamster accidentally pees in the wheel. Which adds on to the price.
