Ok, so dd wants this for Xmas. Clueless mummy alert!!!!

I did not realise this was going to be difficult to get hold of! So, I am now left searching for it and can't find it in our loal toyshops or online, well apart from inflated prices on ebay.

Please, please could people keep a lookout for me if possible? I know its a huge ask of people but she hasn't asked for much this year.

I have signed up for email alerts with a few websites and I know we have a few weeks but tim is running out and I am panicking!

Thank you. x

this site claims to have it!

Mumto2littleangels · 03/12/2008 19:23

Thanks, but if you click on buy now it just takes you to thetoyshop website where it is out of stock.

Am going into London on Saturday so will look there! The silly thing is I saw it in the shops a few weeks ago and didn't buy it there and then, stupid me!

These people will have it at my local store on 8th Dec, apparently. Is there one near you? They may get some of same delivery batch

Can have a look in me local Entertainer tomorrow. How much is the RRP?

hippipotami · 03/12/2008 19:35

Completely out of stock, everywhere, I have been searching for my 6 year old dd.

The man at Toys R Us told us it was unlikely to come back before Christmas.

But Hasbro (makers of Guess Who Extra) apparently hope to have some in teh country by 15th December.

UnfortunatelyMe · 03/12/2008 19:36

miss, its in stock in derry by that link you have just given.

UnfortunatelyMe · 03/12/2008 19:36

and ballymena, you need an irish Mnetter.

Mumto2littleangels · 03/12/2008 19:39

I have just stumbled across smyths and saw that the UK stores said 8th of December. Didn't look at the Ireland ones though!

The RRP is £19.99, going for about £40 plus post on ebay.

Dd wants it. Boohoo. Upset for your dd too hippopotami. If I find any I will let you know.

Thanks Mum - I hope we will get hold of them for our dds

The email from Hasbro said this:

Thank you for your email.

We can confirmt that stock will be available from approximately 15 December in retailers Argos, Littlewoods and Smyths. Please contact your local store for stock availability.

May we thank you for contacting Hasbro and if we can be of any further assistance, either now or in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

So either Smyths know something Hasbro don't (re stock Dec 8th) or they are allowing people to pre-order.

Either way, we are miles from a Smyths and have to rely on Argos, who (helpfully) have removed all references to Guess Who Extra from their website.

Mumto2littleangels · 03/12/2008 19:53

I noticed that hippopotami. My mum said Argos stock it but I can't find it on website as I use that alot for reservations etc....

Will have to keep bugging Argos then, lol!

Thanks for the email copy. x

I have put the Argos homepage on as one of my favourites and check it every morning after breakfast. The minute it is back in stock I will reserve one and put a shout out for you on here!

Mumto2littleangels · 03/12/2008 20:17

Thanks very much. We still have 3 weeks!! Fingers crossed!
