    Elmos are in stock at woollies and argos now


    Anyone who sells now is not going to make anything worthwhile profit-wise. The real potential money is made by holding on till the crucial time. Of course, you may be the one laughing come December if us gamblers get our fingers burned, but TBH I'd much rather wait until then for the potential to make a very good profit (yes, and the chance of a small-ish loss) than sell for a profit not worth the effort now. This was always going to be for the gamblers amongst us. Interesting couple of mmonths ahead.

    I have a few i'm waiting til December to sell and was in Hamleys at the weekend. They had a small display of Elmos with one available to demo. Everyone who saw it loved it. There were about 20 stocked up around it (all top secret box).

    Keep the faith and those who panic, I wouldn try anything like this again if you can't afford to have the money out of your account for so long or are of a nervous disposition ;)

    Good luck to one and all

    It does look like Hamleys are hoping we forget about TMX Elmo now - did a search for him on their site and just says

    Sorry, we currently have no records related to ' tmx elmo' that match your search.


    Edit: Just checked on Amazon.com and there are only 83 for sale by marketplace sellers. This time yesterday there were 560!
