Bolt

You guys know Bolt, right? I love him! I found a 30" plush of Bolt and shopped around for the lowest price. The website toystoreinc.com had the cheapest one, so I went ahead and ordered. Right after, I had a strange feeling; maybe I should check the reviews for this site, just in case. Well, yeah, I should've done that before...

You guessed it; I found a ton of bad reviews and just a handful of good ones. Most people never got anything and struggled to get a refund, or got a wrong item and the store refused to make things right. Given the rarity of the item I purchased, pictured above, I'm afraid I might have stumbled into a deadly internet trap. What's worse is that something very similar happened about a year ago, when I ended up buying a fluke copy of Pokemon Emerald, going for the cheapest price and ending with a bootleg. Ugh.

If I lose my $60, I'll consider myself downright stupid from now on, with no chances of redemption. I'll keep you posted...

So, toystoreinc.com, huh? I never heard of it. I don't blame you for trying to find items at a low price, but you better be careful with sites you may have never heard of. For now, hope for the best.

Well I hope it's better than you think ... That Bolt plushie is adorable! My boyfriend has one, but he's a bit smaller than that. That show made me cry! It's so cute!!

Guys, I paid $100 for a 50" big ol' Yoshi plush; $60 is not that big of a deal for such a humongous plush...right?

So far so good; got an order shipped confirmation e-mail and tracking #, although it doesn't track just yet.

Tracking number actually works; package on its way expected to arrive next Wednesday. Did I really get lucky? Then again, it could be the wrong item...
