I go boxes of 3.5" disks and 5.25" disks on sale at bidville.com. Hmmm.
I cant remember if I have 5.25" any more. But I have DD and HD 3.5" disks.
These things mostly have mac stuff on them so they will have to be
reformatted or erased. Some have //gs stuff on them, system disks and the
like. I am brb4311 on bidville. They are pretty cheap.

I haven't seen double-density 5.25" floppies for sale on a shelf in

I know of a place that sells DD 5.25" unformated floppies in bulk. ^_^
I've been meaning to call them up and finally placed an order for 200 DD
3.5" floppies from them at $0.29 ea(if you get more it gets cheaper per
disk) just today.... they didn't charge me much for shipping either, $5 for
UPS ground. They don't have an online order form though, you have to call
their 800 number as listed on their site. <http://www.floppydisk.com/>
Every now and then I find unopened 5.25" DD floppies at my local goodwill,
never find 3.5" floppies though. I also never find Apple II stuff...
though I did find a Franklin A2 clone... shame I only had $10 and they
wanted $20 for it... I came back a couple days later when I had more money
and it was already gone. I have found two C64's, two Commodore 1541
drives, and tons of console games (I buy pretty much any old console or
computer game/hardware I don't have or think I can trade for something
else...I'm not real picky.... though I won't touch sports games with a ten
foot pole).
