    Still in shock on prices on Amazon - £40!!! Bought my daughter one a couple of months ago for £8 and now trying for one for my nephew and just got one from John Lewis for £9.95 + £3 delivery or free pick up within 7 days - good luck


    I don't get why some of the ebayers don't sell them on Amazon instead. They could sell at half the highest price on there and still make a profit. :confused:

    Actually,, if you think about it this so called 'scare' re the hamsters is probably the best advertising they could get, for free.

    Now even more children are going to see them and want them, if they haven't already.

    Luckily managed to get [STRIKE]mine [/STRIKE] my kids one. I'm happy, I bought mine from ebay. No queuing, no restrictions, no charging around wasting petrol and parking fees, no screaming at the computer. :confused:

    I've been here before, got the grey hairs to prove it ;), done this chasing around for the Wii, Professor Layton and many moons ago, the tamagotchi and them blasted furbys.

    oh the furbies!...mum mum went everywhere to get one for me. my granny evetually found one. and after a week, and i still didnt get what you were meant to say to them, i got bored! i knew how hard they looked tho, so i religiously carried it around for over a year so they didnt feel bad!

    electric blanket...they'll soon learn ;)

  • Thank you:A

    You're welcome. Just hope it's of some use to you and the retailers actually get some stock.

    Yeah, the bleeding thing, which I moved heaven and earth to find, ended up locked in the kitchen pantry after two days. It continued to talk to itself for a number of months, thankfully, we couldn't hear most of it.:rotfl:
