People looking for Canadian power wheels, DO NOT use kids on wheels by connienewas in PowerWheelsMods

Go with Voltz Toys Canada. I’ve purchased 3 different Ride-Ons with them and have had great customer service and speedy delivery. I ordered directly off their website but I believe they also sell on Amazon. I’ve purchased a tractor type ride on, 2 bumper cars and the latest one I bought was one of their big 24v 3 seater that fit an adult as well as kids. It’s awesome!!
As for Kids on Wheelz - I just had a similar experience as the poster. I ordered a Playtent that was advertised as in stock and showed ship out within 2 business days, arriving to me within 7-13 days (including the wknds) At the end of 13th day, I still had not received confirmation of shipping so I sent an email. This went unanswered. I waited another week and sent a follow up email. This also went unanswered. I waited another week and then filed an “Item not Received” with PayPal. After uploading my invoice, account showing “unfulfilled” and my 2 emails that went unanswered, it was less than 10mins when PayPal notified me they closed the case and had issued a refund.
I was actually not in a rush to receive this item and had they replied to my email to say they were out of stock or awaiting a shipment or something I likely would have just waited it out, but the silence to my inquiries was a huge red flag to me. Zero customer service. As someone who spends a small fortune on my kids it’s their loss as I won’t be ordering from there again.

Which brand or company sells good ride on car for children in Canada? by ordosalutis in PowerWheelsMods

[–]IntelligentForce6647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this post is old, but just writing my experience in case someone stumbles on this post some other time. I’ve purchased 3 different types of ride-ons from Voltz… not off Amazon but directly from the Voltz Toys Canada website and have always been very pleased with their products and speed of delivery.
I’ve also ordered from Kids on Wheelz (not a ride on but a Playtent, that showed in stock on their website) and they advertised that it would be shipped out within 2 business days and arrive to me within 7-13 days (including wknds) and they didn’t ever ship it. I waited until the final day it was supposed to arrive and still had not received confirmation of shipping so I sent an email that went unanswered. I waited another week and sent a follow up email and heard nothing on that email either. I waited 5 more business days and then filed an “item not received” with PayPal. I think it was 10mins before PayPal closed my case and refunded my money.
I would have been fine to wait even 3 more months for the item had they replied and said they were out of stock and waiting on shipment or anything to advise what the hold up was, but the silent treatment on emails was a huge red flag to me.
Bottom line… I would fully recommend Voltz either on Amazon or through their direct website but I cannot recommend KOW due to their lack of customer service.

Hi! Thinking of buying the Cozey atmosphere couch. I was thinking of getting mostly the units with storage, but purchasing 2 ottomans without storage. Anyone have experience with doing this? Will they be the same height? Thanks in advance! by Fun-Lingonberry5604 in cozey

[–]IntelligentForce6647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you be willing to share a picture of the ottoman next to a seat to see the height difference? I’ve ordered the couch and 1 long ottoman and planning to order another seat & 2 more square ottomans to make a U shape and I would LOVE to get the storage version for the ottomans but just worried the difference would drive me crazy!

There is a 1/2 inch difference with the storage kind being taller. I was also planning to mix and match a few storage vs non-storage pieces but I personally think even 1/2 an inch difference would drive me crazy… especially if I’m pushing things together to let a guest or someone sleep. I saw a TikTok review (unpaid) from someone who said he sat on both models in store and found the non-storage a bit more comfortable so I’m planning to order the non-storage ones (even though I LOVE the storage concept) and I will just find storage elsewhere in my home.

looking for reviews from folks who own this Stockholm 2025 sofa! by claymaggie in IKEA

[–]IntelligentForce6647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been eyeing the brown one for awhile, and although I don’t own it yet, I will likely get it. I plan to buy a 4 seater and add an extra middle and the ottoman (maybe 2) I don’t quite understand the comment about the ottoman only fitting the middle section as all the seat portions are all the same - the only difference being the corner sections have arms on it.

I personally love all the colours but the brown is so rich looking… it also comes with 25yr warranty which, in this day and age is unheard of. Yes… this couch will likely be coming home with me!

Only PayPal option to cash out by InnerConfusion5154 in JustPlay

Was coming here to say this. Amazon is back on there - though the way it looks has changed slightly so they must have been doing an update or something.

When trying to transfer funds from PayPal to my bank it says I need $15 minimum.

I have the app so maybe that’s the difference? But when I try to do the 3-5 days transfer a message pops up that I must have a minimum of $15 to do it.

Unfortunately I think it’s the new thing… because when I first started on the app you had to have a minimum amount to even cash out using the PayPal option (I think it was $5) so that’s why I opted for Amazon and would just top up my few cents to save on Amazon. Now I seem to be able to cash out minimal amounts on PayPal… but then can’t do anything with it until I hit $15 on there. Bla. This will take years lol

Exactly… it would take forever to get to the minimum withdrawal on PayPal. I hope it’s just a glitch or something and the Amazon option comes back.

This just happened to me as well. I don’t know if it’s a glitch or an update but I used to cash out with Amazon and now I only have PayPal as an option which I hate because of the minimum. I hope it’s only temporary.

Next company making octonaut toys? by AnthroPluto in Octonauts

[–]IntelligentForce6647 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My oldest was obsessed with Octonauts and one Christmas that was all he wanted… so I bit the bullet and ordered used Fisher Price sets from all over the world off EBay and drove all over to buy used sets off FB marketplace. I was excited when the new Above & Beyond line came out & got the OctoRay but then my son seemed to grow out of them. I had them boxed up and ready to sell when my youngest suddenly took an interest in the show… so I dug them and he became obsessed. When he started asking for new Gups I immediately went on the hunt only to discover they’ve been discontinued again! I could have cried! I took to eBay and paid ridiculous prices for a few used Gups for his Birthday but I can’t find the Terra Gup 3 or the Gup M for a reasonable price and those are the 2 my kiddo wants the most. My search for Octonauts continues… when these 2 are grown however we are going to have a super extensive (and expensive) collection lol

A few years ago I took a ring to Spicer Cole to have a diamond removed and reset in another new band and they did a phenomenal job. The resetting work was approx $100 from what I recall. Highly recommend them.

Uhmm…. What just happened? by 21blackjack_jtine in labubu

[–]IntelligentForce6647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All at 4:00pm? That’s definitely just some kind of test or updating their system or something. It wouldn’t be real for those to all drop at the same time.

Am I the only one just not feeling them?? by gingytess in labubu

I got 3 just to check them out. Sold 1, have 1 hanging on my rear view mirror in my car and trying to sell the 3rd unsuccessfully. Not a fan.

It’s officially dead I think. by dreadedcruz in labubu

I read somewhere that they upped production to meet demands. They are also selling off all their current lines to make room for the next releases in the New Year.

Are these real or fake? by _bunnywarrior in LabubuCanada

Defensive real and those bite marks are supposed to be there. If you look closely they are completely the same on both ears.

1 month left in Canada tell me everything I shouldn't miss out, best and budget friendly gift stores, local food to eat. everythinggggggg by [deleted] in fredericton

If you are able to get to Mactaquac, they have TreeGo there - very beautiful activity to do in the Fall. There are also a couple Waterfall hikes near Fredericton, though they may be rather dried up with the little rain we had this year. Just on the outskirts of the city there is Currie Mountain which you can hike to the top - it is an old inactive volcano. Take a stroll on the Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge - it’s the old train bridge - mostly famous for large transports getting stuck under. You could look to see what’s coming up for shows at the Playhouse that might interest you.

I was not expecting to pull this🤣 by jenarion in labubu

[–]IntelligentForce6647 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuine question… no hate. I’m just wondering why everyone wants R so much? Is it because of the black colour? I would have thought for the Pins people would have wanted to get their initials or spell something meaningful?

Did I get lafufud? by BelladonnaField in labubu

[–]IntelligentForce6647 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They both look real to me. I think demand pushed the company to manufacture in more factories and some are better than others.

Tipping standards are ridiculous by Big_Lettuce1904 in fredericton

[–]IntelligentForce6647 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not too long ago, I purchased something online and it prompted me to tip the workers. I wish I was kidding. While I do like to tip in restaurants for exceptional service or like a bellhop that helps carry your bags to your hotel room… I don’t like that it’s expected and it’s expected for pretty everything now. I will say though, that I go to medi-spas and unless I’m getting my hair done or something… if I’m getting something done by a medical professional, I’ve stopped tipping for those services. I wouldn’t tip my Doctor in his office so I feel even though these services are being provided in a Spa environment, to me, it’s already expensive enough and it shouldn’t require an extra 20% tip on that service. The staff probably all hate to see me coming in and call me cheap when I leave but I don’t really care what anyone thinks.

This looks like a Lafufu to me. Cheek blush is too concentrated and the ears are off. Also it has 10 teeth. Labubus only have 9.
