you may also want to check out costco or sams club. if you have any friends in the restaurant business you may also check out restaurant depot.

I'd go to Goodwill or other similar thrift store. They'd probably even cut a price deal for buying that many pieces. Unlikely you'd find all matching pattern, but that would make it interesting & a fun topic of discussion among the diners. Good luck!

my first post is missing probably because of the link, but try ebay......found a good deal on sets of 400 pieces with free expedited shipping......they do have more than one set available.

I agree with checking a restaurant supply company. They would probably have the best prices on large lots.

It they don't have to match, I would ask your congregation. Many have more than one set sitting around the house, or don't need huge sets since kids have left the house. I know my friends and I have numerous sets of dishes and cutlery. I would donate full sets if asked.
