I just want to share with others about very frustrating listings on ebay for Geotrax items.  There are a few sellers that list their items as very hard to find (VHTF) or rare when the items are not.  I assume it is an attempt to get folks to pay more for the items.  I just want to encourage buyer to search the internet for those items listed as rare or hard to find before bidding.  Many times the items are easily found and you can find them for much cheaper than what the sellers are asking.  Go to the Fisher-Price site and many times they are cheaper because of shipping.  Toys R Us is another site to check as they have a large inventory and free shipping on many Geotrax items. Lastly try to Froogle the item, especially if you have the FP product number.
I have purchased Geotrax items from ebay with great success and want to encourage people to use ebay, I love it.  But, just beware, research the item a bit and enjoy.  It's just frustrating that some folks try to manipulate buyers.
Check your local stores too.  Before Christmas there were a couple of items I was interested in and on ebay two sellers had them and listed them a rare and VHTF.  Buy it now and shipping was 3 times the Suggested retail.  I went to our local Target and they had multiple of both items on the shelf!  Realizing inventory varies by location.  But just another reason to research before you buy.
Happy Ebaying.
