Today I came across some used magnetic molds and also a couple of two-piece polycarbonate egg molds. They had a few dozen of these: http://www.jbprince....15-cavities.asp for $25 each.

Has anyone ever bought used molds and/or have any advice? They looked in good condition at first glance.

I have. Goes without saying to check carefully for scratches, but i haven't had any issues with the second hand moulds i bought.

I buy used molds all the time - have only had a few disappointments (the viola's that I asked for that should have been the flowers and ended up these great big honking violins - lost something in the translation!)

$25 for magnetic - snatch them!

Yeah that's what I was thinking! I don't have any magnetic, and they look so much easier to clean, just the sides and no worrying about getting in the corner edges. Need to see how many are in the budget. Thanks!

I've bought a few, only had 1 mould that had a scratch on it, but it cost me £5 and the rest of the bonbons in the mould were ok, so not too bad. The rest I've had have been fine.
