Anyone noticed that some of the regular suppliers of test strips and lancets etc seem to be no longer trading on eBay and the prices have doubled in price I use sd codefree so I’m not sure about the other makes

I found my normal suppliers own website and price are much the same as they where before COVID-19
 
I order my Accu Chek Mobile cassettes from eBay and for my last order found the opposite. They were cheaper!

I got mine from homehealth and was actually cheaper than they sell on eBay not by much but cheaper
 
I do not get stuff from Ebay, I prefer to shop local to keep jobs in town going.

The sellers of test strips on Ebay do not support NDSS strip prices anyway, You would have rocks in your head to pay $60.00 on Ebay for strips against the local NDSS supported pharmacy price of $6.50 or $1.20 with a concession card per 100 box.
 

A bit different here Don
 
I have been using codefree and buying the strips from homehealth they have discounted codes for 5 boxes which make them cheaper and the customer service is excellent

I just ordered 100 Contour Next strips with Sep '21 expiry date for £25 from eBay UK, and they're typically among the most expensive strips in the business. So, touch wood, I haven't yet seen a bump in prices.
 
Accu Chek Mobile cassettes contain 50 tests each. They retail at around £23 to £30 for each cassette. My recent purchase from eBay cost me £11 per cassette with free delivery. I bought 5. Brand new, sealed, expiry date Feb 2021.

I gave away a couple of boxes of those strips just before the CV19 lock down, I would have sent them across to you if I had known you had one of those meters,
