Oh, I spoke too soon...I was not ready for Xmas! I could kick myself...last week, when I was finishing up in Toys R Us, I passed by Dora's Talking Kitchen. I told myself I was not getting it, we have a kitchen...ok, well..big mistake! That day, the kicthen was $89.99...today on Ebay, I paid $127.50 + shipping. Next time, my advice...buy it when you see it, you can always return it later.
And now for a bit of a rant....these Ebay people are worse than ticket scalpers! They buy up the season's most popular toy, turn around, sell it to the poor guilt ridden parents who don't want their kids to lose faith in Santa, for 2-3x the price! It is awful, and I know that I just exacerbated the problem, but I had to get that off my chest.
Next year I will try to do this differently...I will take that Toys R Us Big Book when it comes, and I will go to Toys R Us BEFORE Thanksgiving...and buy what I need! yea, ok...if you believe that, that and a Metro Card will get you on the subway...oh wait, no it won't...TRANSIT STRIKE! I wonder how those people are getting their Dora Kitchens?
