    Has anyone spotted the Mega Bloks Safari set (not train) anywhere please or the Leappad 2. I'm having no joy tracking these down and customer services haven't been of any use at all!.
    Many thanks

    Lots of leappad 2 on ebay and Facebook selling site. All for £50+ one lady is selling 3!

    What annoys me most is that us genuine people with toddlers/kids would love one of these! But these people only buy them to make profit

    I feel like messaging the lady on Facebook, saying could I have one for £30 as u only paid £27 ;)
  • That's what winds me up Clairehas as I'm heavily pregnant and can't battle the stores nor drive around!. I only wanted one for my little girl but I'm loathe to pay that knowing what they paid!.

    Why? Boots bought these for less than £27 and sold them for a lot more than £50+. Im sure plenty of genuine people with genuine kids wanted them. Did you complain then? No.

    Shops buy and sell things all the time nobody cares, you or I do it and everybody loses their minds.

    They had the leap pad things on a counter in my little boots - it has never had any 70% sale stock as far too small so may be worth trying a smaller boots they had 4 today in mine at closing time.

    Yep. Ive a got a toddler so wasn't even going to attempt going into store, and fighting for one. Think things like that should be limited.
    (Wait for people who haven't got kids to disagree!!) ;);)

    The point is...these people buy for the sake of it!! Yes shops have their mark ups we all know that.
    But sticking 3 on Facebook the day after the sale is just pure cheek.
    It's like saying to parents.....ahh haha I got one, u can have one if u pay double.
  • Thank you Cranny44- I can't get about and Boots.com won't honour the store price as they are separate entities so think I will have to admit defeat sadly :(
