Looking for wooden crates

[Mark C]

I've got a 24"x12" shelf full of cookbooks that my 9mo old son thinks is a great new toy, so I'm looking for a box or something to put them in and avoid picking up fallen books every 5 minutes.

I'd really like to use a few wooden wine crates to use for storage. The few I've seen on eBay look to be about the right size, but they're selling for anywhere from $50-$100 depending on the winery. I don't really care about the name on the box, so I was hoping to do a little better. Anyone here have a hookup for empty crates, or better yet have a few lying around your house you need to get rid of? Willing to pay, just not $50/ea.
