    Right let's not argue here again please, I come on here because I want to get the hamster for my 9 year old for xmas not for ebay not for anywhere else just for me or rather him for his xmas present and I have posted many times where the stock is and hopefully have helped people get the bits they need and vice versa, still on here because I need theball, surf and skateboard and do not want to pay the ebay prices for them just the normal prices, as much as every single person on here has helped me I would like to think my info has helped them after spending 4 days on this surely no one would be thinking of me that I am going to put it on ebay, it is just madness, right challenge on again today to get the last 3 bits.
    :D

    I've just noticed that www.hoorayfortoys have added a message under their out of stock houses saying "will be listing more funhouses next week". They have them on for £21.99 plus £4.95 p&p. Not the cheapest option, but thought it was worth a mention if you are on the hunt and can't get one cheaper elsewhere.

    Now my brain is working overtime, I also noted that there was a difference between how items on the site were being described - from a stock point of view. The house, beds, carriers and add ons (wheel, slide, car) are all described as 'out of stock', whereas the ball, surfboard and skateboard are described as 'no stock available - on order'. Which makes me wonder whether there might be a chance of some more of the just 'out of stock' items being listed again before Christmas. Anyway, just a thought.

    I actually posted yesterday that Character will be receiving stock of everything from the factory (EXCEPT addons and accessories) this month, both for their own site and for distribution to other retailers.

    Therefore it is quite possible that 'on order' items could be fulfilled this month.

    The difficulty in guessing is that we just don't know in most cases whether a retailer has more stock behind the scenes and hasn't yet added it to web - or that they truly are sold out. Nor do we known what 'on order' means ... it could be a January order because they missed the boat for Xmas.

    Character have been very open that they have not gone for a big bang on the fum houses. I doubt many others operated like that though ... sold out probably does mean 'sold out'.

    Oh .. and I also posted that Character expect to put on more fun houses this morning and then again this evening, after which they will have nothing Hamster left until the new deliveries - hamsters on 11th and funhouses+playsets the following week.

    Tesco Dumfries had hamsters and about 4 sleep dome surf things at 6pm last night.

    sleep dome surf priced at 19.98 (I think).

    Argos website is back on line. They only have the car /garage for home delivery (14.99). If you read back on the earlier posts today, you'll see their website was down overnight and they posted a code as an apology for the incovenience which enables anyone spending OVER £20 online before midnight tonight (Fri 6/11) free delivery. So if you wanted the car / garage without paying postage, you could always order something else you need to take you over the £20 and put the voucher code in on the payment page and you'll get delivery free. Just a thought...
    :snow_laug Maximouse loves the build up to Christmas :santa2:
