You cannot buy a normal hamster ball, there is a stabiliser included with the toy ball that stops the hamster falling over. The Adventure ball is THE hardest item to find.

    I ordered a playball from play.com couple of weeks ago but says 3 - 5 weeks delivery. I am glad someone else has ordered from them and got goods it has reassured me i will get it then :o

    I have got Num nums, Mr Squiggles and Chunk for my 3 dd's! I brought them from Argos.

    Is this site trustworthy? Have you ordered from it before? Only firefox is flagging it as untrusted?

    Our nearest Toys R Us stores have been quite well stocked up on GoGo Pets for a few weeks now. They have a display near the entrance, where they normally have their offer items and also have another display at the end of the aisles in the girls section. I imagine most branches are the same.

    That's only any help if you live near one though! This was in Oxford.

    Great fun though, we managed to get it all (except the car, but she's got that for xmas) for DD's b'day the other month and it's set up in the conservatory, I found myself playing with it when tidying it up when they were at school!! I love the wheel, and the hamster going up into it and then coming back out when it's finished, amuses me for hours :rotfl:

    I think I might go to Toys R Us for these then, I don't really want to give my card details to an untrusted site and get scammed or something.

    Thanks OP - these will be great for my niece :)

    what is the recommended age for the hamsters? The site says 4+. But up to what age do people feels the hamsters are suitable for?

    Thanks Annie

    Yea with windows it came up as untrusted too. I have used the site before tho a while ago and had no problems since. Saying that i used a account with not much cash in just money for presents and offers when i see them rather than a main account / card.

    I have found the cheapest place is the website the Op has posted (characters-online) or play.com but delivery is 3 - 5 weeks.

    Argos have the hamsters and the car (if not in stock i found they delivered them to my local store within a few days) but i cant get the deluxe fun house from them but you may find your area has it. Argos are doing a offfer of buy the funhouse £24.99 and get a go go hamster 1/2 price for £4.99.
