Source for match boxes?

I am searching for plain match boxes for holders for a swap item I am workign on. I want to get my swap item finished but can't until I locate the boxes because I need to know the dimensions of what I will be putting them in, lol! The only place that I have been able to find them so far is in the UK and I really don't want to spend all that $$$ to have them shipped here if I can help it. Anyone know of a source? Just plain white ones ... nothing fancy. All the ones in the US I have found are all where you have to personalize them for weddings, etc and you have to order at least 50, lol! I only want a dozen!

They are also called pasteboard sliding boxes. This is the first site I found.

And my last reply lol - why not just go buy some matchboxes, ditch the matches and cover the box in a nice wrapper that you can print. That way you can make a cute little label.
