    Angry %^&***^%%$$^%^ Amazon seller VULTURES

    ARRGGHHH! I am so angry at the people who are clearing out the LeapPads from the stores to sell them at 250% of the regular price on Amazon! I need 2, 1 each for a 3 and 4 year old boy. I started shopping for them in OCTOBER and I have only been able to get one PINK one. I got to WalMart today to find a man take ALL of them off the shelf. I asked if I could get ONE from him and he told me to check his page on Amazon! $220.00! It sells for $99 retail and NO ONE I mean NO ONE has it, in store or online. But all kinds of people have them on Amazon and EBay! VULTURES VULTURES VULTURES! I hope you enjoy the money you make of the backs of hard working people with small children! JERKS!

    They don't have a limit on how many you can get at Walmart? I thought their was a limit. I did a search at yahoo and a store called Nextag came up and had one with a micophone for $52.77

    When I went to the site I typed in leapad with microphone and it came up witn it.

    Bestbuy has them for $99 too.

    http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...&blockType=G11 $ 99.00 at Sears and free shipping to the store - it has a link to see if it is in stock in your area.

    I agree with the poster. Just like when Target has a great clearance and you see someone with every book bag in the store is in their cart and later find them being sold for 10xs what they paid. Save some for someone who needs it.

    Kmart is doing them on layaway too. I have 3 kiddos who want them. I understand your frustration with people.

    Sears...sold out in my area, same for sears.com, toyrus.com, walmart.com, walmart, kmart, kmart.com, bestbuy.com, best buy, target, and target.com. I have searched all of those stores in a 100 mile radius of my home. I am on a site called itsinstock.net that gives you alerts when a .com has them in stock, but it seems like I miss the alert EVERY TIME and they are out of stock in 15 minutes. I have a Sister-In-Law at Walmart and a friend at Besy Buy trying to get one, and even THEY can't! And my Walmart has no limits on items that are not on sale...........................

    Well hate to burst your bubble, but.... The cheapest at the mfg is $159.99 and its a BUNDLE - green color - seems the aren't selling the platform alone - games included for that price.

    http://shop.leapfrog.com/leapfrog/ju...gory/cat710011

    Then I suggest to look around the site, they have starters for less then $80

    p.s. FREE SHIPPING if you spend $50.00 -- seems no problem on this.

    Hate to burst YOUR bubble, but they ARE sold platform alone for $99. The reason the mfr is selling the bundles only is the SAME reason I am complaining about...the singles are sold out and people will pay the $159.00. BTW, they are now only selling a "super" bundle for $199. Keeps going up and up.

    I have done months of research on these games. I know who has them and who doesn't and how they are sold.

    Shoot I think before I put myself through all this stress I'd get them something else now and maybe try for their birthdays or some other time. I bet right after Christmas they'll have plenty of them. Good luck.

    Maybe you should have stayed in school. What's the big deal that you pay the extra $50 ish dollars that include a game, or pay over $200 NO GAMES INCLUDED.
