    Once they sell out of their own stock they automatically refer you to the next best price from one of their Market sellers.

    Mine arrived this morning, it looks really good my dd will love it. AND the bubble bottle is 237ml not the 115ml as advertised...even more of a bargain! Thanks again stolt.

    No probs, I got mine yesterday and didn't check the bottle size. Will have to get the bubble machine out at the weekend for the kids.

    I have tried ours tonight, gives off loads of bubbles, my dd loves it.

    The instructions tell you to put the bottle into the side attachment so it continually fills up the reservoir this is a great idea if you intend to use the whole bottle in one go and have it stood in one place until its gone, I tried to move it and the reservoir was full so the slightest movement and it spills over the edges and out of the back of the unit while the bottle continues to refill the spilt liquid making a mess everywhere impossible to turn the unit upside down to get the bottle off I ended up doing so over a glass dish to save the solution and get it back into the bottle...... :eek:

    So for any of you that got one its best to fill the reservoir direct from the bottle rather than fixing it onto the machine and top up by hand when it runs low or runs out it might interupt bubbles for a few seconds but better than wasting the solution. :money:

    was going to get mine out of the car boot today but our youngest daughter has arthritis and had a bad day so wouldnt have been very fair expecting her to run around after bubbles today.:rolleyes:

    fingers crossed shes better tomorrow. I'm a nightmare when i have bought a new toy for them as i cant wait to show them:rotfl:
