    If only mother in law could drive as she's in Newcastle. :( There is absolutely no stock in my area :(


    Fenwicks in Newcastle are expecting some more stock in, they just don't know when; however, they have told me if I keep ringing and they have the stock available they'll hold what I'm after for 24 hours. I know it's not ideal but it gives me that bit of hope.

    A friend told me that Lambs Toy Shop in Darlington are getting the fun houses on Thursday, she wasn't sure about the accessories but hopefully this will help someone. They do have a website but it appears to be 'down' at the minute.

  • Hi there,
    Just thought I would let you know.
    Today I reserved a house at my local toymaster store in coalville and have been unable to get it. If anyone is near then you can pm and i will give you the details so you can get it. As far as I know it is 19.99 not 24.99 like some of the other toymasters.
    good luck!

    When we went, we were told they had all gone. Went for my friend as we have ours to be shared by two kids. Lucky us....

    Been thinking about all these price hikes and wondered how it is that when toys are advertised on telly they have to show the rrp but not when they are promoting a product instore or online. I know we all know the rrps but not everyone will realise they are being overcharged. MAYBE MARTIN CAN START A NEW CAMPAIGN?! :money::money: :money: :money: :money:
  • am i the only one who has nothing yet...lol...am seriously losing the will...& if retailers are putting prices up, well thats it..I AM NOT GOING TO BE RIPPED OFF!!!! I think it's scandalous that people have bought up the stock in the shops to make a profit on people trying to get their kids what they've asked for....Christmas...the season of goodwill///BAH HUMBUG!!!!

    They have only got to read this forum to realise the demand for this stuff and we are propogating retailer's avarice by posting. Think I am going to stop posting....google search for Go Go pets Hamster shows this thread quite high up in the search results and within minutes of posting about places in my area, I called over a ball and was told sold out/reserved...thanks!

    And goodnight!

    That wasnt really my point. I was suggesting that retailers ought to by law state the rrp alongside their own sale price.

    Well Hooray have just sent me the dispatch email for my house.. woohooo!!
    Now I have 2 hamsters and a house :D
  • Makro in Exeter have just taken all the stock down and have said they are now off sale!! Managed to argue it as had phoned before hand to make sure they had stock and then drove 30 miles, they let us get the skateboard with num nums included for £29.99.

    They said that they'd be back on sale Wednesday although I'm thinking with a price hike as not sure why else they'd take them off sale?!


    I'm glad you got num nums and skateboard but that is very odd if the stock has been removed from the shelves.
    Went to the paper shop - it had blown away.
