    its worth noting that the cheap ones sold on ebay are almost certainly not Heelies but a cheeper version.
    we bought a pair of genuine heelies in the states a few weeks ago for $63 inc tax (about £37). lots of places are selling the cheaper ones for about $25 but if you compare the two you will find that the heelies are much better made.

    How old should you be for these?
  • I saw some "heel wheelies" or similar -attachable wheels on a chassis type fitting which attach to heels of trainers. Don't know how good they are, but 2 pairs for £10 from The Works :j
    Wheels also have flashing lights when they spin!

    May be worth a look

    my son was seven when he got his and we've had no problems, unlike a number of his school pals.

    IMO, the reason for this is that we got the type with two wheels in each shoe and these make it a much easier task to glide about on.

    definitely good fun, the Heely brand are really good quality and IMO worth the extra expense (remember to buy them a size bigger than normal).
