Yeah they had them on target.com for a short while...no longer of course. I snagged one from walmart.com back in October....they were available for like 30sec. lol, but after some quick clicking, I got one. Total after taxes and shipping was about 50$.

Good luck with your sale

It sucks now because they really aren't going for much more than what they cost anymore.

I have one interested party for two Elmos. I have a couple others still available. I'll send one out for 70$ shipped depending on your zipcode. I also have 100% ebay feedback, send me a PM if you want my ebay name.

Its Cool!
Check out a video on YouTube...they do amazing things for a toy...and at a decent price! Yet they are near impossible to find.

A Christmas Present for a son, daugter, niece, nephew, cousin, etc.

Why not?

I dunno why YOU would want one??

The robotics of the thing are certainly interesting, but it doesn't really seem like much of a toy. I mean, how can kids play with it, beyond watching it gyrate on the floor?

Sorry, not meaning to crap on your thread. Was just hoping that maybe there was something more to this thing than I thought.

Well, I bought a few of them when I had the chance for my nieces. Also, my gf and I are keeping one for ourselves, because it makes for an interesting conversation piece with company. I think its worth having one. Just my opinion. You want one??

Because douchewaffle wannabe scalper kocknobs like you snatched them up to turn a profit? Take a shower, shave and get a job.

PS: it's not that I want or need one, or know anyone who does, but the farktarded spamming of all forums, groups and classified with elmos, playstations and what not has started to become just a little bit annoying.

Yea. No kiddin. I would say something about holiday spirit, but this is a thread devoted exclusively to you (MM) attempting to profit from market dynamics.

Capitalistic spirit? Hell yes.
Christmas spirit? Ehhhh.
Love that chicken.®

Look at the price...these retail for $40 to $50. Add in shipping and paypal fees, Im selling them for basically retail.

If anything, I'm saving someone from having to search desperately to find this toy for Christmas. If I was in this situation and somone made these available for a reasonable price....to save time and energy I would buy it in a heartbeat.


IF YOU'RE NOT INTERESTED DO NOT POST!

They retail for $40, not $40-50. Shipping is around $5, and Paypal fee is around $3. You're selling a $48 item for $60-68. You should be on eBay, not here. Forums like this are generally used by the local users to make trades or sales of used items, not for profiteering fools. eBay is for profiteering fools.

Wow..if no one is interested, then no one will post and the thread will slowly go away.

And shipping is 5$ ...remarkable, where is that???
Actual shipping is 8-14 depending upon which part of the country you live.

Way to forget taxes too....I guess they don't exist where you are from.

Oh yeah many stores were selling them for $50 including stop and shop, superFresh, and others.

SO PLEASE STOP THREAD CRAPPING.
