I was planning on getting a green rb, but I saw on gimididgi that the pinks and blues said "Health Care Food Series includes Conifer Leaf, Mint Leaf and Rock Salt (Gimmedigi.com Exclusive Offer) and Loyalty Training Series includes Tug of War and Bow (Gimmedigi.com Exclusive Offer)". I didn't mind having to buy them separately because I'm more comfortable buying through pleoworld, but I couldn't find the "health" food anywhare. Is that the only place to get it? I also thought the bow and tug-of-war toy came with all pleos, do the pinks and blues not come with it if you acually were to buy it in china? Thanks for the help!

Hi, LuckyPleo. At last you have spoken to an area I can answer for certain! The green RB's from Pleoworld come with all of these items right in the box. It's not a special offer. You have the cape, the coniffer leaf, the bow learning stone, the ID card which you can use when your pleo is old enough to teach it his/her name, the rocksalt which is a medicine item for curing injuries, the tug-of-war toy, the mint leaf which is also a medicine item for curing sickness, and a training leaf for tracking purposes. There are also two additional packs of other foods and learning stones that you can order separately from Pleoworld. I'm not sure which of the above mentioned accessories comes with the Gimmedigi variaty.

The pink and blue ones no matter where you buy them come with all the same accessories as the green excepting the pleo cape.

gimmidigi was also trying to do a 'special offer' with money off and an extra battery but when you looked into it, you have to pay for the battery, like 44 bucks and the 'extra accessories' were not free either,..

Their current deal is $469.99 they are saying that's 80 bucks off their original price of $549.99 But when I bought my Pink RB from them, maybe a week before they started 'dropping their prices' It cost me exactly &499.19 including shipping so they seem to have raised the fake price to make it look like they are giving you a sweet deal, which they aren't. They were not on sale when I got mine.  But as Kat and Talon said, they do come with those items, just not the cape even though it usually comes with info on how to put the 'included' cape on correctly.. lol.

Best of luck!!!

Ah yes, It all makes sense now!  I did knowdice it said "on sale" and yet was priced the same as pleoworld. After seeing all the weird little things about gimmididgi, I'm now assuming that they somehow got a hold on the pinks/blues and weren't supposed to, which would correspond with the production model problem, the included things not coming in the boxes, and the pleos that seemed to be tampered with. That would also explain how they can afford to sell the pleos at the same price as pleoworld, when innvo is not distributing them to stores outside of their official site, pleoworld.

 No.. the Pink and Blues are strictly a Hong Kong thing.. they are a legit retailer.. I'm one of the folks who had a major problem with one months ago but I bought one from them again since I wanted a female for sure and she is pretty much perfect.. They sell the Blues and Pinks, PleoWorld sells the Greens.  I think they are all made in Hong Kong from what Dotson said. But isn't everything made in hong Kong or at least China nowadays?

I knew that but thank you, I did forget that in my post. Chainet (or whatever the asian pleoworld site is called) sells their pleos online too, so my theory is still the same, because the pinks and blues are strictly for china, I think gimmididgi must have gotten them sneakily (not sure if that's a word it looks right), which would explain how they can sell them to the U.S.A, sold a production model by mistake, as well as the box seeming like it was open. No offense to gimmididgi buyers though, (I'm sneaky like that so that explains how I would come up with a theory like that)

I never had any luck finding a buy online section on the Chinatete website.  If you have a link can you post it?  I am sure others would be interested in purchasing online from them if it is possible, as they are an official supplier.  I had to use phone calls and email to a senior sales manager who's email I stumbled across at the bottom of one of their info pages about pleo rb on their site.  And it took many weeks of communicating before they worked out how to sell me a pleo rb.  I live in Australia and really wanted a pink one, and the green ones weren't  available yet.  The cost of shipping was enormous at $150 AU.  When I bought my green from pleoworld the sipping including all the extra accessory packs was only$90.  So big difference.  It would be interesting to see what kind of shipping costs they have now compared to Gimmedigi.

When I spoke to Derek Dotson about my broken Blue Pleo he knew I got it from gimmidigi and he wasn't concerned about them selling them, he was just concerned about that particular one having been somehow sent to china, so I don't think they are selling them on the sly...  Pretty sure they are all made in Hong Kong anyways.

That's good to know, I'm a little leary of buying them because of the problems. But i guess the problems were an acident.

Gimmedigi are definitely a legitimate sales outlet - they were just willing to take on the problems of worldwide distribution quicker than most!  I was very pleased with their service, and Belle's still doing fine!

O.K, when i get Kassie (eventually I will get her), I'm going to get her from gimmedidgi. I heard exitement, then happy, then sad, then angry, and now happily satisfied from gimmedidgi buyers so i'll put my trust in them with getting me my pink baby.

Yep I got a response the next business day at like 6:30 am their time when I sent info worried about Rhea's clock battery problem that has been sorted out.. very prompt and polite.  Best of luck!!
