Has anyone spotted a glut of Baby Annabell's Winter De luxe outfits anywhere?

Can't believe I can't find any on line or in shops (so far - will venture out today) None at John Lewis even after getting email from them yesterday to say back in stock. None at Argos!!!!

Help please

Isn't Fenwicks part of John Lewis? Know there's one in Newcastle which is a tad far Smile

Entertainer? I know they do lots of dolls' clothes.
Can't you knit a suitable substitute? Grin

The outfits are so blumin expensive though arent they? i go to our 'coastal' craft fairs and there are 2 ladies who make lovely outfits for baby annabel 4 pound per outfit and they are gorgeous

Oh, it's a complete bloody rip-off but it's the only thing she consistently asks for and still plays with Annabell every day even at over 7 1/2. She's comes out for meals with us etc.

Have you tried Woolworths online shop?

Tinker · 09/12/2004 16:21

Thanks socci. Just checked and is out of stock there as well Shock. It is on The Entertainer site but, of course, moe expensive than anywhere else. If I don't find it tomorrow, will have to go for to that I think

Tinker, would it help if I went to Entertainer and bought one, then posted it to you?

Tinker · 09/12/2004 16:28

Oo oo oo, it might do Smile. I'll look around tomorrow for one and see if JL email again. But if no success, then yes please!

PamiNativity · 09/12/2004 16:32

Ok then. There's also a Toymaster near me....have you checked them out?

Sid · 10/12/2004 14:24

Go to anywhere (eg H+M) and buy prem-baby outfits - much cheaper and much greater choice!

Great idead in theory sid, Smile but she's seen it and would know. Can't get out of this one I don't think.

am just on phone to our local dept store (where my friend is in charge of toy dept)

cranberryjampot · 10/12/2004 16:18

right - my friend has got none in store but is expecting some and will put one away for me when they come in Smile hope this is okay.

GoodKingWestCountryLass · 10/12/2004 21:06

Have you tried the ELC?

Original poster
Tinker · 11/12/2004 16:04

ELC sold out as well. Jampot - not sure if your message was for me, big Blush if not but if so, thank you very much. Might be easier if I do this since I can send payment direct to store if so. But if not for me lots of Blush Blush Blush. Pamina, if your offer still stands thanks as well. Just thought if I paid a store it would be easier than you paying first iyswim. Ooo, I'm confused as well. Will see how it turns out. Thanks both anyway.

Tinker, they seem to have them on the Argos website \link{http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&langId=-1&catalogId=2501&productId=107691&Trail=C%24cip%3D18652.Toys%2Band%2Bbaby%3EC%24cip%3D18795.Dolls%2C%2Bplaysets%2Band%2Bpushchairs%3EC%24cip%3D18803.Baby%2BAnnabell&categoryId=18803&clickfrom=name\here}, but I can't work out whether they are definitely in stock just because it says delivery in 48 hours? (My dd has her eye on these too- I'm pretty sure they have them in Jenners, so I could look on Friday and buy two if all else fails :))

Gasped with hope then Tamum. It made me go all through the options just to tell me, "Ha, Out of Stock". May take you up on your offer if other options fail - thank you very much.

OP posts:
TinselTamum · 11/12/2004 16:29

Oh I'm sorry! I went through to try and check and it told me that it was unable to let me know what availability there was :(

cranberryjampot · 11/12/2004 16:30

Yes tinker the message was for you Smile. My mate is brill and sooooo helpful.

Tinker · 11/12/2004 16:32

No problem tamum. Thank you jampot. If you could let me know when/if they come into stock we can sort something out. Thanks again. Never realised they were so popular.
