Just been learning about the all new Furby and how it was priced at $39.99 so I go to see if Agr9os have got it and sure enough they have at £39.99!  Excuse me but thats not exactly fair is it

Nope, surely you can get it off ebay and import it for less?

Amazon.de have it for 59.99€ thats the same price as in the UK

Yeah I might do that if I decide to get one.

This is redictoulous. I can understand it cost a little more to import but more than twice the price for people in Europe its not on

I have a better idea - get Nintendogs for the Nintendo DS.  Same sort of thing as the Furby but much, much cooler

I saw some of the new Furby's on the weekend and couldn't believe we were going to go through all that again.

I holiday in the US quite often and I always say....IF its £50 over here I can get it for $50 in the US.So its almost half price

Yup your lucky maybe you should muggle some it (that might not be easy with furbys) and sell them you could make a packet

Muggle some    Someone has been reading too much HP - just like the rest of us 

I could get so cross when it comes to rip off Britain.  I am not sure if is the VAT that pushes the prices up or the manufacturers.  A friend recently visited the US and said on the flight home practically everyone was wearing Timberland boots.  I think she said they saved something silly like £50 a pair.
