Anyways that was before I realised how scarce they were. I have a hamster I bought on Amazon but haven't been able to buy any accesories etc. mostly due to being at work when stock gets released.
Thinking that I will have to take the Ebay route at great expense now. So my question is what is the thing (besides the hamster itself of course) that I should buy? WHich would my God-daughter most likely get the most enjoyment from? Funhouse maybe or something else?
As a 30 year old male I'm afraid I haven't a clue!
Thanks in advance.
If I'm entirely honest with you, the house isn't any good without any addons. Ebay makes it extremely expensive. They do work on the floor. But I would recommend the ball (£25-30 on ebay) and get her other bits after christmas.Sealed Pot Saving No. 799 - Currently £105

If you get the funhouse then you could add on to it after Xmas when more stock becomes available. You could still get a funhouse outside of ebay but it is getting harder.
The other things that can be used without the house are the ball (very rare and extremely overpriced on ebay), the surfboard/sleepdome and/or the skateboard with the small u turn with it. The last 2 are designed to work with the house but can be used as stand alone. The car can also be used as stand alone if you line the hammie up with the garage.
I think if it were me i would try to get the house with the hope she could add on to it next year maybe altho as previous poster said it is quite a non-entity without the addons. The ball is the other thing i would consider but i wouldn't pay 3 x the RRP from ebay - your decision though

It is reduced at woolworths at the moment from £40 to £32, and as it is over £30 then you get free delivery, which is usually next day I think. Don't forget if you order from them to go through topcashback or quidco :beer:

I have never ripped anything open so fast in my life. Mr DHL must have thought I was crazy. It's great :cool2: Got a purple carrier so DD will be very happy on Christmas morning. My DS will have to share as I think I am gonna call it a day now on hamster hunting. Those other accessories would've been a bonus but I am very grateful for what what I have got. Don't know if I'll be able to give up this thread so easily though. I hope you all get everything you need :xmassmileNot stressing over what I haven't got but rejoicing what I have:T0
