Lele-

All the newer Aluminum screen cages are all the same. The cages do have rivits, but they are already installed on the cage. They use rivits for the door hinges (one side of the hinges has rivits, the other side for the door uses screws). Also rivits are used for the window stops (locks) to hold the doors shut. Try looking on ebay for a better deal. Hope this helps!

eBay doesn't have much right now. None that include shipping.
Just shopping around for the best deal. I was going to wait and my friend was going to help me build one but Luna LOVES to go to her jungle gym each day (hates to come down - huffs and puffs at me! LOL!! So I want to get her into something taller. I am having such fun with her!

i tried going through ebay for one, it took longer to get here, and cost about $5 less than reptile depot, who i now use for all my supplies.

I won't buy another cage from ebay. I saved a few bucks, but was left guessing for almost 3 weeks. Won't mention the name again
