Also, most important question in my book, can the sound effects be turned off if desired?

I am sure I could get it to be silent. I can't promise to be gentle, however.

I have to say, the videos are worth 1000 words or more. Investing in even a not-so-professional video would be very worthwhile. Maybe do a promotion offering something free (entry into raffle for free product?) for people who upload video reviews on youtube or amazon.

Thanks will definitely run such a type of promotion. I appreciate the suggestion.

you should consider adding that feature for the next version after these sell out ;-) Fun notwithstanding, parents are the ones buying most toys so they will sell better if they don't drive parents crazy.

Is it available on Amazon? For security reasons, I'd prefer to order through Amazon. How fast would you ship if I order through your site? When can I expect to receive it (Brooklyn)?

Hi,
I shipped a huge stock to Amazon but for some reason they didn't activate it yet. I can't say how long it will take them. However if your order on the website it will get shipped out on Monday 12/18 and you should be receiving it on Tuesday the 12/19

That makes sense - their latest ship date to be available during the holiday season was
December 1 so I guess it might not get processed until next week. You could also add your own seller fulfilled listing on a separate SKU to use until then, which will get activated right away, and you will ship out to customer's yourself.

Out of curiosity (since I deal with some of these logistics in the company I'm working for and trying to work out the best shipping options for this week in order to reach customers on time), what method of delivery are you using for overnight service that isn't exorbitant?

This is a great idea.

Are you asking for the best way to ship from you to customers overnight?

Yes.

We usually ship items with USPS Express Flat Rate Envelopes. Only thing is- it's not guaranteed overnight, it's 1-2 days depending on location.

For more expensive items, we ship UPS because they are more reliable (especially internationally). However, they seem to be having lots of delays this holiday season.

I can't weigh in on FedEx or DHL, because we hardly use them. You can try to plug in the weights and dims in all 3 websites and compare.

If you do a lot of UPS shipping, you can contact First Choice Shipping and see what discount they can offer you off standard UPS/DHL prices and see if it is worth your while. You create the labels through there and you can easily compare prices of the different carriers they use.

Can you post a direct link? I assume it's not coming up via search, since the listing isn't active yet.

Hi,
As soon as it's live I can post a link. Now it's not active so I don't have a link to post. I'll keep you posted and let you know as soon as Amazon activates the listing.

It looks great! Why don't you sell on Amazon from you for now like a previous poster mentioned, so you can start building up ranking and getting reviews?

Thanks Mommy12345 and Boca00 for the suggestion but Amazon won't let this category start even if I don't do FBA. If I haven't sold anything before on Amazon they don't let me start now for the Holiday season even if I do merchant fulfilled.
