I love some of the toys, ok a lot of the toys from this catalog and web site. Are they a good company to deal with? Do they ship fast? What did you get?
Thanks

Ebates is a website. www.ebates.com If you sign up and start from their page you can get a percentage of your purchase back from various stores (complete list on ebates website). Every few months (once a quarter I think) ebates mails you a check.

I ordered the sit n' spin from Back to Basics Toys. Everything went just fine.

I just received their catalog and really liked the looks of a lot of the toys. But I did notice that some anyway were a lot less expensive other places. I think it depended a lot of which toy, but just beware and make sure you do some research (the Radio Flyer Walker Wagon was one I noticed that was much more expensive, but the rolling box of wooden blocks was about the same as other prices I'd seen, except on sale).

I noticed that too. Like the Ryan's Room Mambo Combo--ouch! Good thing I got the Costco deal on that last year.

I agree that their prices are high sometimes! The sit n' spin I ordered was a totally plain one. I didn't want noise or lights. This was the only place I found that (although I'm sure there are others--just the only place I found). So it can be good for things that are hard to find elsewhere.
