    Just rang 2 Asdas in Merseyside. One hadn't had any stock in - and had never heard of them. The other stores CS growled down the phone -'No. We had stock in last week. No idea when the next is coming'.

    The Asda Living @ Broughton Park, near Chester may be a good try. I have seen (and bought) items from there within the last week.

    I find it amazing how some have never heard of them, and others are getting right stroppy!! Toys R Us stopped answering their phone end of last week!! x

    Yep, many many thanks to you, your post prompted me to ring again, they had 3 hamsters in this am - my DD has constantly said that Pipsqueak is the hamster she would like if possible, so she will be so thrilled come xmas morning - I'm so excited for xmas day now to see her little face light up, thanks again so much to you and everyone on this site, I had been searching alone for weeks for these critters with no luck and then came across you guys - wouldn't have been able to do it without you all - keep up the great work - we should all toast fellow hamster hunters at our xmas lunch:T

  • Hi, I think this e-mail received from Wilkinson only relates to hamsters - they don't seem to advertise the accessories/add-ons on their site.

    "The Go Go Hamsters are due back into our distribution centre on 23/11/09. Providing that these do arrive as anticipated they will be released for sale from 24/11/09 onwards."

    Hope that helps a hamster hunter.

    Did they have balls farmer?
    :j Proud owner of 2 hamsters (Num Nums and Mr Sqiggles) - house, slide, wheel, surfboard, car, skateboard, 2 beds and 2 blankets! And the ball!!! Thank you TRU - fingers crossed! :j
  • Did they have balls farmer?

    Had to double check what you had written then...!

    No they didn't I'm afraid. That is also what I am after!

    They had every hamster on the shelf and also the car/garage, the spiral slide and ramp and also the wheel and tunnel.

    HTH.
  • Just rushed to asda living dartford and got the wheel and car, i tried to get the slide but it was 2 only (understandable) luckly my friend was in the car park so sent her in for the slide well pleased so thanks so much.:beer:

    Just got an email despatch from mailorderexpress for my ball so hopefully on it's way ;)

    This is the only item I've paid over RRP for so really hoping it's not as poorly made as the skateboard and tunnel (got it out of the box the other day to check it and it looks like it will fall too bits imminently :()

    I have read loads of stuff about how flimsy the entire set is but still i have purchased nearly the whole damn lot!!! The hammies will probably die after about a week as well - but i have bought pressies before for the kids thinking they would be great and they have been a disaster so I will just add them to the list!!! :rotfl: I will make sure the boys are careful with the playsets etc and then if the hamies die i won't mind purchasing up to 2 replacements next year when the shelves will be packed full of them!!!

    I have paid over the RRP for the slide (ebay) and 2 hammies (£6 over each) but the rest I have managed to get at RRP, the 2 most recent locally so no postage either.

  • I've been busy today...

    I've also had an e-mail from Electronic pets as follows:

    "We don't have any stock of the hamsters
    >> themselves at the moment, but we do have the Deluxe Hamster Fun House
    >> (£29.99), Skateboard and U-Turn (£18.99), Surfboard and Sleep Dome
    >> (£18.99) and Hamster Adventure Ball (£19.99).
    "

    I queried that this morning as their web-site doesn't show the items, and she said they just weren't on their website at the moment, but were all in stock.

    I ordered a ball - its a bit expensive, but it looked the most fun so I was happy to pay a little bit extra.

    If you're interested, try phoning them.
  • Its officially the christmas season in my house now, i've just seen the coke advert on the tv and that is the one thing that i watch out for every year.
    So theres life outside hamster hunting, i still get time to watch this morning:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
