has anyone ever heard of these?
i remember seeing a whole bunch of them in a store late last year, and tonight i just went to the toy store to buy one as a gift for somoene and was informed that they are compleatly sold out in connecticut and to try massachusets.
i went on ebay when i got home and there were people bidding for them going up to $40 for the small size (i didn't even bother looking for the regular size)
every website i went to that sold them, they were out of stock.
i finally found one at a reasonable price (actually the same price they sell them in stores) on amazon and ordered it.
and i thought the lengths i went to to expand my uglydoll collection were bad!
what's the big deal with these?

Posted: 4/26/07 at 9:35pmI have no idea what the hell they are. The only thing I know is every time I'm in Hallmark for something, someone comes in looking for them and a clerk says they're sold out.

I send lots of cards.
Seriously, I do. Im in there once every few weeks maybe. Sometimes I go in just to look around. The ones near me have some very unique items and I love giving gifts that are a little off the beaten path.
