Hi, this forum section started after I built my greenhouses so I posted the information in my topics, greenhouse no 1 was brand new and cost about £1000 $1500 to buy and build.
later I decided to add a second greenhouse, money was a bit short at the time so I looked around for something cheaper.
I saw one advertised at my workplace for £40.00 about $60.00 US, there was a snag I had to dismantle it from site and move it home myself build some foundations for it and rebuild it in my garden, it was also too big for the space I had so I cut 2 feet off one end.
The ground in my garden slopes 2 ways so building foundations caused its own problems, however if you are willing to put in the time and effort a greenhouse costing about 20% of a new one can be yours.
you can follow the story in hobs topic 2008 page 27 to page 34

ok so there you are a 6 feet square greenhouse complete with base installed for less than £200 $300 no excuse for not having one now
other places to look for 2nd hand greenhouses are supermarket message boards and local papers.
