Ganz have actually got some sense and are not retiring all the Cheeky Collection! Imagine what it would have been like if they had retired the cheeky monkey… with Cheeky Dog Webkinz prices at $1000+, Webkinz Cheeky Cat prices at $400+! Ebay sellers would probably sell the three for $5000!!!!
I was out most of yesterday and was pretty tired when I got back in, so I didn’t get a chance to get onto Webkinz World; however tons of you in the Webkinz Forum have been reporting that the Webkinz site was down yesterday. As I said, I was out, so I couldn’t see if anything was wrong…
I’ve been on today and it looks as pretty and fun as ever, so it must all be good now!!
I never thought I’d see the day when Webkinz gift bags would start appearing on Ebay and in shops LOL. It’s wierd that Ganz have even produced these, with the huge shortage and all. Shouldn’t they have been making more Webkinz????
Anyway, that’s your cool thing for today. I can’t think of anything else to say so I’ll get back on Webkinz World hehe :-p
Check out this picture of three brand new Webkinz I just found on Ebay! Not only is my favorite Clydesdale there, but two more Webkinz which I guess they are in the process of releasing! They are the Spotted Frog Webkinz and the Beagle Webkinz!!
Don’t they look sooooo cute?? I can’t get my head around how cute the little Spotted Frog Webkinz and the Clydesdale Webkinz really are! It’s just astounding really!
Anyway, the auction that I found that picture on had those three Webkinz for the small ticket of just $90!! I’m sure as they start appearing around by me again, they will be cheaper than that- but I guess it’s the eye-candy picture that I wanted to show you today!
What do you think of the Spotted Frog Webkinz, Clydesdale Webkinz and Beagle Webkinz??
All over my Webkinz Forum, people have been posting thread after thread about whether they can have Webkinz secret codes or Webkinz codes. Now, although it’s great that they are showing an interest in Webkinz and want to get involved, let me just point out one little factor that affects whether people give away Webkinz Secret Codes or not…
Webkinz cost money. Half the point about getting Webkinz is to create an online account at Webkinz World and start playing with your virtual Webkinz. Now, if they give their Webkinz Secret Code away then how would they use that pet they bought on Webkinz World!??
It seems stupid to me that people are actually bothering to ask for Webkinz Secret Codes, simply for this fact! This also goes to the naughty, ignorant people who actually steal Webkinz codes from the Webkinz in the shops! How evil is that? Robbing a Webkinz Code so that someone who actually buys the Webkinz can’t even use it!!
Especially right now, with the Webkinz shortage - it becomes even more evil if you actually steal a Webkinz code, let alone persuading someone to hand over theirs. Maybe it’s me being bossy LOL but I really want people to stop it!
I hope you understand my point, because if you don’t I probably look like a big loser right now, but seriously - Webkinz Secret Codes are precious and need to be respected. No stealing or “taking” from people, okay!??
News Just In!!
Apparently, Ganz are stopping retailers selling Webkinz on Ebay. This means that if you want to sell your Webkinz, you are now more likely to get a higher price for it since there will be less on there! I don’t know why Ganz have done that, but if look on Ebay - no retailers should be selling new Webkinz.If you want to buy Webkinz, you might be shocked to see a higher price which is pretty annoying… but if you want one so bad that you go on Ebay to get it - I guess you won’t be bothered how much you pay!!
Okay well as you all probably know right now, there is a terrible Webkinz shortage, and no-one can seem to get their hands on the little critters… let alone the Webkinz Trading Cards and other stuff. Anyway, I’ve been posting on an alarmingly regular basis about how Ganz should improve the situation for their millions of Webkinz lovers out here, but they always seemed to be “ignoring” us. It was as if they didn’t care that we were being starved of our fix of Webkinz…
Well, today - one of my Webkinz friends told me that Ganz had told them they are starting to “care” again. How? They’ve apparently built a new factory!! Apparently, Ganz have stopped accepting new retailers signing up to sell Webkinz until they get enough Webkinz out here to keep us happy! They have apparently said that they have stopped accepting new Webkinz retailers untill the current back-log has been provided for. They have done this by making a brand new Webkinz Factory!!
Yay! Finally - we might see the end of this terrible Webkinz famine! We might be on the verge of a new Webkinz era where Webkinz are everywhere and everyone’s happy! LOL - I’m speaking as if it was the end of the world or something, but I guess I’m just so excited and pleased that Webkinz are finally going to be available on our shelves once again!
This will also mean that all the Webkinz they promise will not be “delayed” or “late” in production, due to the huge demand placed on a single factory. This can be seen best with poor little Clydesdale Webkinz. This little guy is meant to come out around about now, but I guess that the huge shortage has meant he will not be shipped until later than expected. As you all know - he’s my next Webkinz target and so far - I haven’t even seen one… even when people on Webkinz World are playing with them!!
I wish Ganz good luck with their new factory, anyway. I hope they make more and more and more Webkinz with it - so we can all have our share of the little cuties!
Ahhh… Must get back to Webkinz World! LOL!

Well, it’s never come to my attention that so many of you aren’t totally sure which Webkinz are actually retired and which aren’t! Ganz have been very secretive about which Webkinz they retire and which they keep on which makes me wonder if they actually don’t like retiring the little cuties! LOL
Anyway, today I want to actually explain which Webkinz are actually retired and what prices they are fetching on the likes of Ebay. I just want to warn you now - some of the Webkinz prices I will list are not “fantasy” ones… they are actually selling for that price or more!!
Okay, so the first Webkinz that I want to talk about is the Cheeky Dog Webkinz. I actually posted about this yesterday, and how it’s fetching over $1400 on Ebay simply because of how rare it is! It’s amazing what some people will actually pay for a Webkinz but if they want it that much then I guess the money’s not a factor! The Webkinz Cheeky Cat is also in this category but only fetches around $400 on Ebay. This Webkinz is one of the original retired Webkinz, with the Cheeky Dog!
The “new” retirees that Ganz have taken out of production are not fetching as much on Ebay as their Cheeky Webkinz cousins, mainly because they aren’t so rare right now… but I bet their prices will shoot up soon enough!!
The most surprising of these Webkinz retirees is the Basset Hound! This little cutie has been a true Webkinz for ages now and I for one am very sad to see him go, as I am sure many of you are! I don’t know why Ganz have stopped making him, because I was one of the most popular Webkinz but they’ve done it and we will never be able to buy him in shops again!!
The Webkinz Brown Horse has also been retired. I can see why they did this, because they’ve brought out lovely Clydesdale, but still it’s a sad loss indeed. As with the Basset Hound, I’m sure tons of Webkinz Lovers will miss this little guy!
In addition to the Webkinz Brown Horse, the Webkinz Pegasus has also been retired. I know for a fact that this Webkinz has been the favorite of many Webkinz lovers and so I am extremely sad for them to see their favorite go like this. The Webkinz Pegasus will not be sold in retail stores any more!
Along with Webkinz Pegasus, the Webkinz Unicorn has also been retired!!! I can’t get over how many horses are going here, but I guess Ganz will bring out some better horses to replace them!
Ganz have also retired the St Bernard Webkinz! This has been one of the cutest little Webkinz on the planet and I am extremely sad to see it go! The St Bernard Webkinz is already starting to fetch $100 on Ebay!
In addition to all those retired Webkinz… Ganz have also retired two cats! The Grey & White Cat Webkinz and the Orange & White Cat Webkinz!! These have been there since the start of Webkinz and so I am very sad to see them go!
Retired Webkinz are getting worth more and more, and so I suggest if you find any stores with those Webkinz hiding in there, then I strongly suggest you buy them all! You never know… you might make a nice profit on Ebay so you can go out and get some more Webkinz when the shortage is over! :-p
Thanks for reading!!

As many of you know - the Cheeky Dog is one of the most sort after Webkinz after it was officially retired. Well, I was just taking a look on Ebay to see if any Webkinz were going cheap on there, and found an absolute Webkinz bargain!
It was a Cheeky Dog “Brand New With Tags” Webkinz for the small price of just $1299!! How cheap is that??…. NO! LOL.
I’ve met a lot of Webkinz lovers both locally and online and not one of them would ever dream of paying that much just for a Webkinz. I mean they are great, fun and cute but seriously - $1299 for just a stuffed toy?? You either have to be a gazillionaire or really really love Webkinz to buy one LOL! For $1299, you could even get a real dog and pet it in real life!
UPDATE: After taking another look around, whole sets of 45 Webkinz including all the retired ones are actually selling for as much as $5000!! There’s me thinking that the Cheeky Dog wasn’t worth $1299 and there’s 45 going for $5000! What a strange land we live in - I’d rather just get the regular Webkinz for $10 or so than spend that much money… it’s crazy!!
Maybe it’s to do with the current shortage of Webkinz across the whole country - making prices for the even rarer ones climb even higher??
I’ll talk about Webkinz more tomorrow - It’s Sunday and it’s sunny :-p
When I started making this website, I never knew that it would get so popular that I would start receiving emails in bulk! I’m now receiving maybe 10 a day from people asking me about Webkinz cheats for Webkinz World. They always seem to ask for more Kinzcash from so called “cheats”… in fact here’s one I received yesterday:
“Hi Steph,
Since you’re a Webkinz “Goddess” I was wondering if you had any WebkinzCheats that I could use to get more Kinzcash so I can buy some cool stuff? I’m getting bored of Webkinz World and I really need money.
Thanks for helping me out!
Bob (not his real name)”
Okay where do I start? LOL. I like the way he called me the Webkinz “Goddess” but that’s about it to be honest. I mean, how can he expect me to know cheats which are obviously wrong in Webkinz World and then expect me to tell them to him??
I sent a nice polite reply just saying I don’t know any Webkinz cheats, which let me tell you now is the truth.
You see, there’s one thing that Webkinz World have made very clear over the past few months… and that’s the fact they hate Webkinz cheats. This includes people who steal other people’s accounts and spend all their money and using tools to gain an advantage in Webkinz World.
To show you how serious Ganz really are about Webkinz Cheats, here’s an extract from their own site:
“We at Webkinz World are fully aware that members are using tools to attempt to cheat on our site. We want to make our position on the use of these tools very, very clear.
First of all, remember that any attempt to circumvent the security of our site violates the User Agreement. Accordingly, any use of a cheating tool will lead to the immediate and permanent termination of the account on which the tool was used. Whether the account has one pet or 50, the account will be closed. All codes for pets on the closed account will remain used.
You will not receive a warning, and it will not matter whether you have used the tool (or used other means to attempt to circumvent the security of our site), once or many times.
Also note, as we have stated before, all activity that occurs on an account is the responsibility of the member who is registered on that account. If a “friend” or anyone else used your account to cheat on our site, you will still be the one who loses your account.
If you ever find a large amount of KinzCash on your account that you know you did not achieve, DO NOT USE IT. Contact us immediately and we will remove the excess KinzCash and you will not lose your account.
We have already terminated the accounts of dozens of members who have cheated on our site. It saddens us each time we have to close an account, but we must protect the security of our site and we will continue to do so.
Sincerely,
GANZ”
Now if that doesn’t make it as clear as crystal for you, then I don’t know what will - Webkinz Cheats will not be of any benefit to you what so ever. Why? Because even if you find a cheat that will earn you 1,000,000 Kinzcash - Ganz will be onto your account in a matter of minutes and automatically close it down!
Not only that, but Ganz have a dedicated team of computer people who work around the clock on Webkinz World, making sure that there is no place for people to use cheats. Basically, they have made it into a cheat-tight Webkinz World LOL.
Also - Why would you want to Webkinz cheat on Webkinz World?? So you can get 30 rooms in your house or something? I think it would take all the fun out of it in an instant. The whole point of Webkinz World is to be able to build up your Webkinz and their homes the correct and proper way… making you feel more accomplished about yourself. If you just go ahead and get millions of Kinzcash some how, then you will just spoil the fun and the whole point of Webkinz World!!
That’s all I want to say on Webkinz Cheats LOL… that they are 1) Very Bad & 2) Non-Existant.
Actually - I can give you a pretty good tip to get Kinzcash right now: Buy More Webkinz :-). Each time you adopt a new Webkinz, you earn 2000 Kinzcash, so if adopt 5 new Webkinz, you will earn 10,000 Kinzcash!!
If you have experienced anyoneusing Webkinz Cheats, or have been cheated yourself - why not talk about it in my Webkinz Forum?
For all you avid collectors out there - I’ve got some good news! The lil Kinz Hippo is being re-released! For all you who have collected almost all the Lil Kinz collection, only to be shocked that the Hippo was discontinued, then I am sure this is great news!
I’ve only got 3 Webkinz (a shock I know), only because I can’t find any stores locally that will give me some of my babies. I’ve taken up 4 blog posts about this, but I’ve got say it again… Webkinz are in seriously high demand and now, Ganz can’t seem to make enough.
It’s strange that I’ve had to write it for 4 days straight because you would have thought that Ganz would have listened by now at least. I haven’t phoned or emailed them yet but might have to start doing so if they don’t get it all sorted pretty soon… because I for one am getting pretty annoyed.
Anyway, back to the real good news… about the lil Kinz Hippo! I’ve forgotten when it was retired now, but now it’s been re-introduced I’m very pleased. It’s as if Ganz have made another addition to the Webkinz family, just like if they introduce a new Webkinz. So, from now on - should be able to find one - you can now purchase the lil Kinz Hippo again!! How good is that!?
