Hi folks,

Toys R Us and Paypal say they have fixed the glitch which meant some customers' cash was trapped, and insist the money will be freed up very shortly.

Toys R Us to release unsold Go Go Pet toy 'payments'

Thanks MSE Guy and Martin - dont suppose he could start a campaign about stores and internet shops selling toys over the RRP!!

I've been watching the Ebay sales of Go Go stock for the last couple of days, just out of morbid curiosity really, and I have observed the following things :

1. Hamsters are now only selling at an average of £6 above RRP - which means if the seller had to pay postage from TRU etc, then they have barely made a profit. (I came to this rather scientific conclusion by monitoring 53 hamster sales, and working out the average price which was £16)

2. Houses are selling for an average of £28 - which is indeed £8 above the RRP but I myself bought one from Hooray and when taking postage into account I paid almost £26.

3. Chunk is seriously underloved, averaging only £13

4. The most sought after item is still the ball, averaging £11 above RRP

5. I really need a bloody job.

funny onion re the gambling commission - I think its great you've done this but I was just wondering why they cant they just do their own ebay search for go go raffle and filter completed listings - they'll find loads of them?

Thank you. I wrote back giving them a screen shot of current ebay raffles and tactfully suggested how they could access the ebay site themselves and what to put in the search to find the auctions as it was difficult for me to give them up to the minute information as often the raffles are one day listings only.

Can you believe it, I have spent practically half my life in the last 6 weeks (small exageration) looking and searching and refreshing sites and pages for a playhouse only to find tonight my husband clicks on argos for the 1st time tonight and puts in our postcode and reserves a house!!!!!!!!!! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey but how frustrating!!!!
They are already back out of stock in all Sheffield area as I was going to post our find here but no, I think I have jinxed it again! lol

Hmmmmm now I need a slide, a wheel......etc etc......

Well done you in your research. I think you will get several hundred if not thousand people from this forum willing to give you a reference praising your analytical skills!

That information is handy because it does give us an idea of whether to hold out to buy on ebay or try elsewhere. I think we will see a drop in ebay prices for a short while but I nearer to christmas when last minute shoppers decide they want them, we will see an increase. Just my theory!

That's men for you! Now if you can just get him to put his socks in the laundry basket and put the loo seat down and he'll be perfect!

I have just e-mailed Argos in desperation asking if they are expecting any stock of cars for home delivery, or more cars for reserve and collect before Christmas. Will probably get a "we don't know" but worth a shot!
