I can tie you some for cost of shipping and material if you want.

There's a guy that frequents a couple different forums. He goes by the name of Jerry Warrington. He ties amazing flies and sells them at a beyond reasonable price. He does these 50+ and 100+ boxes. He usually ties up a mix of flies but is always willing to work with the customer and help build boxes to suit your needs. Best of all. Any profit made goes to help his "kids". He goes to the local hospital and teaches children that are in the cancer ward and such how to tie flies. He's a top notch guy and like I said you won't find a better tied fly at these prices. If you want to know more. Feel free to PM me.

I've not purchased from Jerry, but, I have corresponded with him. His flies are very reasonable, and as previously mentioned, he uses the proceeds for his "kids". Great fellow.

I just bought some from Big Y Fly Co. I was impressed with the quality for the price and I've tying 50 years...same with Caylor Custom flies.
Just did some business with Woodpig(Byron)(Woodpig at the Fly Tying Forum) don't have the flies yet but he has been in constant contact with me the whole time sending pictures and discussing changes. I can tell just from the pics he did an excellent job. Should have them in a couple days..I'll come back and update once I have them in my hands.
Bought some from Discount Flies also...all the deer hair bugs the eyes fell off(some in shipping) and the heads are loose but still you aren't paying $6-$8 a fly either. I just removed all the eyes once I saw that painted the heads with thinned Shoe Goo and glued the eyes on myself....still a good deal.
