Source for pots?

I'm new to this section of the forum so please forgive me for asking a dead standard question but I just bought 100 3.5" pots off of eBay and got swindled.

I'm growing Chamaedorea microspadix and have seedlings in six packs now ready to pot up before the weather cools off. I know many places throw plastic pots into the trash but I was unable to track any down so I bit the bullet and ordered some from an eBay seller. They're absurdly flimsy, shallower than standard pots and nearly useless. 

I can delay potting up another week (temperatures expected to hit 100 later this week) but seek your recommendation so I don't wind up with more inferior product. Can you suggest a source?

Greenhousemegastore also carries some of the common smaller Steuwe pots: https://www.greenhousemegastore.com/containers-trays/plant-pots/

Scroll down to the treepots, or they also carry a bunch of other standard pots.  I've ordered from them several times.
