I was at Genuardi's supermarket today and saw a bunch of Poof sports ball on one of those stacks that sit in the middle of aisles. They are sold in boxes of two, with one football and one junior basketball (our 7" Poof Ball ). They were $12.99/box, but with my Genuardi's card it was down to only about $3.99/box. So I did some switching of box contents to get 3 boxes of two balls and one box of a ball and a football. So 7 balls total for about $16.

I checked out another local Genuardi's and they didn't even sell them, so I can't guarantee that a Genuardi's store near you will have them, but I would recommend checking it out if you are having issues finding these balls.

Those are the incorrect balls, they do not have the skin. (I think they may be lighter too)

the company that makes them. $8.99 each 40 costs you $359.60, over night shipping is $30. They seem to have it because it was letting me check out.

Did anyone else notice that at playchild.com, for every ball you added to the inventory, the total weight increased by 1 lb.? I'm guessing they're estimating, but they practically gave us the weight of this year's ball.

I'm sure we'll be out searching for poof balls this week.

Those don't seem to be genuine poof balls.

The top item on the page is part number P-850, which matches the part number on the genuine Poof ball wrapper I have sitting here on my desk. The picture is a generic picture of lots of different products. I'm trusting the part number information. One thing I have learned over the years is never trust the pictures in the catalog...

[EDIT]I guess I'll know for sure on Thursday, the vendor just sent me the shipment tracking info. That means they probably have some more if anyone is willing to assume the part number is right. Still not as good a deal as $4 each for 48, but if you only want 12...[/EDIT]

Probably, but when I placed (at 1pm EST) and had them confirm anorder at $3.95 a ball (at 2 pm EST), only to get an email today saying that they can't sell them to me unless I buy in quantities of 12 at $6.50 a ball, that's a little dishonest (don't confirm orders unless you have the inventory in place).

Yes, they probably got slammed pretty bad with orders, and I can't fault them too much for increasing their price, but their behavior seems to be a bit unethical.

The Washington state FIRST teams are a friendly bunch. Someone found out the correct part number for the balls in advance and ordered a case of 12 balls for all the teams in our state at $58 a case. We didn't know that we were ordering balls, by the way, but the one person who knew ordered a case for each team who wanted to buy the $58 "mystery item." We picked them up with the KOP at the kick-off in Bellevue. Thanks, TRC, Team 492!

My son and I found the balls at Fred Meyer yesterday for about $6.50 each. The store in Redmond still has one (1). We bought the rest. Unfortunately, Fred Meyer does not have an online store.

I went to google.com, and the clicked on "Froogle." Searching on "poof basketball" returns lots of hits. I haven't checked the availability or pricing, but there appear to be lots of sources online. Good luck.
