No more than £30 , last one I bought from Sainsburys failed miserably , perhaps my impatience didn't help ! Also thinking a garden incinerator for 20 quid might be the answer ?

I got one from Staples, dunno how much but I wouldn't have spent more than £30, I reckon. Is fine - it shreds better than I do on my steed 🙂

Gerbils

Anything they don't shred for their own bedding gets bonfired. We don't have many bonfires.

Yes - Bit noisy, does the job though but I only use it lightly - receipts, etc Metal cage already has dent in but at least you can tell when it's full.

Got a Rexel one one we've had for donkeys years (at least 12), just light household use and it is getting a bit tired now but does the job well enough.

We had a Rexel last time, but it would only do 5 sheets and was forever blocking.
We've now got a Fellows 10 sheet thing and it's much better.
