    Good Morning!

    Just noticed that Hooray have put more stock back online, but showing currently as sold out......will assume once again it will be available for sale soon!

    I heard from Carol the other night after they listed a few hammies and they are not expecting any stock now before christmas. she said if anything did come in, that she'd let me know so I'll post on the forum if i hear anything.
    :snow_laug Maximouse loves the build up to Christmas :santa2:
  • K1ttycat just wondering what u mean by Hooray or an i just being thick...... come to think of it Im having a thick morning all together.

    Only the manufacturer says its safe ,errhhemmm ,ofcourse they are going to say that ?
    Dont think i would take the risk with my kids tbh ,there has been too many cases of toy companies trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes for the sake of profits :(

    If you read back the last days pages you'll see that the goodguide failed to test to EU or US standards and hence their results are flawed in comparison. If all toys were tested in the same way as goodguide tested go go pets then they'd probably all be condemned. Goodguide consider Lego, furreal toys and a number of others to be unsafe for kids. It's all about researching the facts and tbh after looking into it I believe that these toys are no more unsafe than many of the other toys and indeed general things I expose myself and my dd to everyday.

    Xx :)
    Please remember to thank fellow MSE'rs :beer:

    Oh thats ok then they're only a little bit toxic ,lol (goes running out to buy her kids some )
    I predict a mass recall in the new year but the kids will probably be bored of them by then anyway ;)

    Who released theis list ? Ofcourse the manufacturer is going to produce lots of 'spin'
    The consumer group still maintain they are not safe ,what do they have to gain ?
    The manufacturers have everything to lose :)
    Im sure of I had spent hours on end chasing down these over priced clockwork mice then I would be looking for reasons to justify their safety but to anyone not obsessed ,it its possible to take a step back and think and see what comes of the finding first :)

    Loopy Girl sorry to inform u not guaranteed to get a ball there is 3 sets on that page and JL picks which one u get.... sorry again

    What do you mean? All it shows is the hamsters, playsets, beds and ball??

    I have paid the £9.95 so it can't be anything more expensive than that?

    Not that it matters as I only have the playset anyway (and the 4 hamsters) so anything else is a bonus
