    Nice one flo you beat me to it

    Mine are at Cwmbran, 2 for my nephews and 1 for DD or I'd send you a reservation number. If I spot any more localish I'll give you a pm. Going to go first thing and try not to argue if they say no, lol.

    Just realised I'm at mums posting as her username - I'm actually FloFlo.
  • Got two off Ebay for my boys - they were played with for about 45 minutes the other year and now live in the wardrobe, along with Robosapien... Glad I didn't pay full price for any of them. Still £8 aint bad...
  • Too late. :(

    I'm not quite sure what point you are trying to make here, are you trying to help or hinder people?

    If you cant see the point i'm making then you are either blind, stupid or greedy.

    More and more now you are seeing people reserve items they dont intend to purchase and offering the reservations on here, or worse, selling the reservation codes on ebay, which is not really helping the general public buy items they genuinley want to buy.
    ..and for what?
    To score a few brownie points on here?
    Its sad if you ask me, and not really fair play to joe public who doesn't have internet access or hasn't heard of MSE.

    And before you all go off on one, were all entitled to an opinion, this is mine, and its as valid as anyone elses.

    Imagine how frustrated you would be if you walked in to your local Argos to buy your kiddie that much wanted gift only to find out its out of stock, then low and behold, somone on MSE has reserved loads at various different outlets and is offering the reserve codes on here.... a generous gesture you may well think, but if that pr4t hadn't have reserved items they didn't want in the first instance you could have got your gift regardless.

    /rant over

    If you could type a post without the sarcasm, and insulting fellow members, then perhaps your opinon would be as valid as anyone elses.

    ordered one, may i please suggest you all go for delivery? Argos will charge you on collection THE CURRENT IN STORE PRICE ON THE DAY YOU COLLECT, not the price you reserved at.

    I ordered a kettle and toaster pack as a gift for christmas, the price had gone up by £2 overnight however i was still given it at the price i reserved at.
