I checked on Ebay, and only seem to find them sold as singles, and
they seem to be running $15 or more.
Can anyone suggest a place where you can buy several, and they are
not treated as "specialty items" - with the associated high price?
I thought we would be able to find them in a multi pack for about $8
or $9 each, but so far I haven't found any luck.
Just for curious, why do you want such things? I would have killed for today's
disposable diapers 40 years ago!

Hope they are better than they were 30 years ago. Cloth was so much
easier / faster to change & didn't fail nearly as often.
We'd use them when away from home, but most always used cloth at home.
I used plastic pants pulled on over diaper-service cloth diapers.
I hear that there is now a diaper-free movement (no pun intended.) How
green can you get, eh?
Perhaps you should think twice about buying wool anything for a baby- with
baby's skin so "new" and sensitive, wool could be irritating if not cause
a down-right allergy.

There are still patterns out there for them, too.
I just double-diapered my children (making a half-twist to go between
the legs to reduce horizontal bulk) who had extra-sensitive skin and I
didn't need soakers, but I bought top-quality cloth diapers.
No pins. They can weigh POUNDS by the time you need to change them. No diaper
rash. I guess they could be improved if somebody figured out how to make them
absorb babyshit, leaving a clean bottom, but that's probably too much to ask.
