    I have just unpacked one of my hamsters from Argos and one of the little tabs on the bottom is snapped off!! Does anyone know if these are important? It is one of the thick square ones above the wheels. Am so annoyed as there is no point me taking it back if they are not going to have a replacement to give me!! Anyone any ideas?

    Tabs are to keep ties on to keep it in the box, that's all, so you can relax
    :snow_laug Maximouse loves the build up to Christmas :santa2:
  • Sounds great - and much less than RRP, too, incl delivery, I think?

    carrier (£5) + hamster (£10) plus half a house (£10), wheel (£15) and slide (£15).

    That's £55!

    Tell me, I'm dying to know. Does Patches talk in English or Spanish?

    i don't think Parches is Spanish - i think you can get him from America too. Can't wait for my set to arrive - I had a missed delivery from DHL when I got home today, I'm hoping that's what it is....

  • Are you the tortoise from MN ? (Lloo here)
    If so am very glad you got the hamster :rotfl::T but then you start wanting other things :rotfl:

    Yes it is me :rotfl: Very relieved to have found a hamster. To be honest i didn't believe i would end up wanting more bits for it!!! How wrong was i!! So far only really want a bed for it though.

    Dont worry, this came up on a post a week or so ago. These tabs are part of the packaging. The important little stick is the one at the front under the head as this is how they detect other hamsters and which room they are in in the house . ;)
  • OI! Mumsnetters!!! Tell me who you are on there!!!!

    has anyone noticed how the price has dropped significantly on ebay in the last couple of days. I this a sign that more stock is becoming available and the profiteers will lose out?

    they are probably wait til people panic buy on there near xmas and pay silly prices

    I am in Northampton but it is pretty much the same around the country. I have got 6 hamsters reserved from argos at the moment for friends to collect tomorrow, so being persistant does pay off. Just be very patient though or youmay end up like those sad gits on ebay paying way too much

    im northampton too...ive tried argos lots everyday and found nothing..so i guess there is stoock afterall

    DHL is definitely the courier the Spanish site uses, so looking good
