Rosie or Anyone get one? re:leap pad

in Austin Babies

I got a notification that the leap frog site had the bundles in stock. I was hoping it would last longer since not everyone wants a bundle.  I had the thing in my cart atelast 8 times and every time it would give me a "timed out" message just as I was getting to the payment screen. UGH!!!!!!!

 

did anyone get one?

    I got to the payment screen 4 times and then it timed out.  It did say "thank you for your order" once, but that was before I entered my cc info.

    They keep coming back as in stock on zoolert, but I'm not getting texts.  I'm still trying, but the servers are clearly overrun.

    FAO has them and I got 2.  A&J, let me know if you want one.  It's just the single green, no bundle.

    Emer - well, i just got a message that it has been backordered from etoys. :(  I'm going to call them and cancel if you still have the one you will sell me.  Let me know!  Thanks!

    Aaaaaand in and out on Kmart.com again.  In the time it took to click on the Checkout button.

     

    yep, i saw that.  Well, i'm on the phone with etoys now trying to figure out if I have one or not.  :(

    We probably can't get them because every time they come up someone is buying them to resell.  :(

    Cherish Your Baby says they have 50 in stock:
    Just the gadget. Not the bundle.

    It happens every few years, right?  I remember the Tickle Me Elmo chaos that was 1996.

    hmmm, wonder how often they update- i bet they don't still have 50- especially since it is cheaper than everywhere else at only $71.

    Ugh how frustrating!!!!  I tried every time I got an alert and no luck.  If anyone gets 2 and would like to sell one let me know.  For now, I will keep trying!

    frustrating isn't it.   it will let you put it in your cart and then when you go to pay- GONE! 

    I've NOT bought this damn things about 20 times now.  

    etoys now tells me that they can put in a shipping address request but no telling if it will go through.  I can cancel and reorder since it is on backorder though. Shoot.me.now!

    A&J - do you have a Plan B? What other similarly cool gadget kid gifts do you think A would like?

    What about a back story for why it didn't arrive on Christmas and just waiting until it comes in January?

    not right now, i'm holding out hope!  :)

     

    If I don't have a confirmed one by the end of next week I'll work on plan B. People here had some good ideas.  I looked for other cool tech toys she might like- but she is poretty set on this.  And once that girl makes up her mind! 

    MC- you mean you'll email me (unless I already have one), right?! Wink No, they have no idea when the back orders might fill.  BUT, if I see them on an alert again before mine gets filled I'll be calling!

    Ok, I actually go into work now.  I pretty much wasted the whole day yesterday(um, until 1am) trying to get one of these things. IndifferentCrying

    Let me know if you get them. I need two and I can't be on the computer too long this week. I'll include a couple of MIL's pumpkin rolls too.
