Frank, you asked me where to pick up a Furby priced in two figures. Try e-gift, a new web site scheduled to go on-line tomorrow (according to an article today on Yahoo under the HAS symbol). The article says that they're counting on the fact that they have Furbies to be a real attention-getter for them. Here's the e-gift URL (remember, it is inactive until tomorrow):

If GRIN only recives 10% of the 1.5 million Furbies that means
GRIN only gets 150,000 X $40 = $6 Million with a profit margin
of 4.1 percent is only $246,000 profit. Usually after the christmas rush is over are parents etc, going to go out and buy Furby after they just spent money on other gifts because they could not get one during the christmas rush. I hope Hasbro is working 7 days and nights. Furby is a going to be huge, a toy that interacts. This aint know ( OOH THAT TICKLES )
