Poof Ball?

[Stephen P]

I just called Playchild and they told me that all the orders placed about a week ago (when they were 3.95 per ball) got cancelled, since they didnt have enough supply. Here is an email i received:

I just spoke with the sales manager at Poof-Slinky. There was a miscommunication with the Robotics organization and you may not be aware of your options for purchasing the 7" foam balls.

If you can order at least 48 balls (orders must be in 12 ball increments) you can purchase the balls at wholesale ($4 each plus shipping) by calling Peggy at Poof-Slinky 800-329-8697.

Orders less than that can be ordered directly from Poof-Slinky online at www.poof-slinky.com for $8.99 each plus shipping. These balls come individually boxed, so they cost more.

We have a small quantity (96) being sent to us to arrive on Thursday. We can fill a handful orders (orders must be in 12 ball increments) at $6.50 plus shipping. We'll take them on a first-come, first-served basis. We'll calculate the shipping offline and contact you.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We'll do our best to help you with your robotics project.

Good luck in your competition.
