Title: Blind Bags - bulk buying?
Post by: Gingerbread on March 15, 2012, 12:01:02 PM: Does anyone know where I can get the Blind bags in bulk? I have a few of Wave 1 but reaaaaaaaally want the rest of them plus the other waves without spending time and time again on P&P. Does anyone have any ideas? visitors can't see pics , please register or login

I wouldn't mind buying them in Euro packaging, Hasbro, just put them on there! :yikes:

The only other place I have seen for bulk buying besides HasbroToyShop is the much hated eBay.

Post by: Gingerbread on March 16, 2012, 01:46:18 PM: I've done a sweep in a few dozen supermarkets near me and nowhere has any. Frustrated, much? They seem to have popped up everywhere else! I'm in a blindbag black hole lol. I'm going to put a wanted up I think, it's going to cost me a fortune in petrol otherwise!

Man, I hope those wave 2's come out around here, too.

Post by: Sea_Breeze on March 16, 2012, 10:38:19 PM: We still have Wave 1 here but the cheapest I've seen them sell for is $3.70NZ each!! and their normal price is $5.00 each. Plus shipping to the UK and it would probably work out cheaper for you to source them locally.
