No the post made complete sense. Is this about parents grabbing a gift they couldn't get as children because there was some sort of panic at the time or do children actually want this thing. I have 3 of the them (children) not Furbys and there is no interest. Its a 10 minute on Christmas day thing. Next year you couldn't give them away

Maybe just your kids don't want them. Mine does, as he saw it on the TV.

Do people's children actually want these or is it just the parents indulging in some sort of "hunter gatherer" ritual to see if they can get one up on their "friends"?

my kid wants one - I don't see a problem with that as a main gift - it may well be short lived but that's the nature of kids' toys - rather pay £48 for one of these than similar amount on a PS3 game or similar in all honesty.

People selling reservation numbers is very low - I hope they get ZERO interest.

I thought that ebay did not allow this. These listings should be reported.

I had one the first time round, still have it now and my daughter plays with it - hardly a 10 minute thing. And years ago there was the same craze for the A La Carte kitchen. My parents managed to get me one. I was so happy, still remember it now, and it's in the loft ready for my daughter. If people want them for their children, let them get on with it.

On the Argos site, it says that these are exclusive to Argos between 14th and 27th of November, which says to me that they will be in all the other shops from the 27th of November onwards. Does any one know if this is right?

Ebay does not allow sale of reservation codes. Report them and they will get removed. It is wrong for people to be making money out of parents just trying to make their childrens Christmas happy.

Why do people pay for these, if they don't sell the reservation codes will come available again after close of business the next day.

Put them in your watching page then go to

http://ocs.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?CustomerSupport

They will come up to select and report to eBay to be removed.

I have just done a couple!!
