    Well it won't matter today because its 10p listing so thinking of listing at £99, they don't sell and I can relist within 30 days. If I wanted to actually sell them I would try at around the £55 - £60 price plus p&p.

    I remember reading the original Tickle Me Elmo 10 years ago was fetching prices of several thousand dollars at Xmas time.

    Stop it, I'm already going to hell for keeping 4 to sell on - are argos open yet.

    My advice to everyone saving these to sell on nearer xmas is don't, you should sell them now.;) (Thats got rid of the competition).
