Is Google showing Jellycat search results in 'real time'?
Simple answer: NO
What does this mean?
It means that when you search for a Jellycat product on 'Google' or any other search engine, the results that you see on the left hand side (the organic links) are not, necessarily, up to date with 'price' and 'availability'.
This happens because Google cannot keep up with daily price changes caused by 'sales' and 'competition' or the daily change in stock levels created by high demand and unpredictable stock returns.
What this means for potential customers (like youself), is that you should no longer take any notice of the 'in stock' or 'out of stock' or 'price' labels that Google puts at the bottom of a search result.
They are sometimes correct but very often wrong!
For example, below you will see a section, taken from a Google search page for 'Jellycat Fabulous Fruit Cherry', clearly showing that we are 'Out of stock' of this item, BUT, we actually had 45 in stock at the time this was taken, Google had simply been unable to update in real time, it actually takes 1-5 days for these figures to update, and often by then, they are out of date again!
So, as a rule of thumb, always click through to the website and look for yourself, you may be pleasantly surprised!
Are Amazon and eBay the cheapest places to buy Jellycat?
Simple answer: NO
Jellycat has a policy of not trading with 'third party' sellers, so if you see a Jellycat item on sale here, it is either second hand, or has been bought from an existing retailer, and the price has been hiked to allow for a profit margin.
The image below is captured from the Amazon UK site offering Jellycat designs for sale.
The prices have been circled in red.
They show:
Jellycat Amuseable Boiled Egg - Small for £18.42 - Our Price £9.95 for the same size! (Jellycat RRP £12.50)
Jellycat Amuseable Avocado - Small for £23.40 - Our Price £11.45 for the same size! (Jellycat RRP £15.00)
Jellycat Bashful Dragon - Small for £20.99 - Our Price £10.95 for the same size! (Jellycat RRP £15.00)
Jellycat Amuseable Croissant - Small for £26.41 - Our Price £11.75 for the same size! (Jellycat RRP £15.50)
It is, of course, impossible to compete with Amazon's delivery service, it is simply remarkable, so Amazon certainly has it's place, but please do not make it your 'first port of call' because you could save £££'s by using a recognised Jellycat retailer.
Where are Jellycat toys made?
China, Indonesia, Cambodia and to a lesser degree Vietnam.
Originally all Jellycat designs were made in China, but because of the enormous growth of Jellycat in recent years, they have had to use multiple sites to try to keep up with demand.
They are still designed in the UK and are very much a British company. They strictly oversee production, making sure that they continue to meet the highest standards, using only the best quality fabrics.
These are the points of origin from Jellycat delivery boxes.
Are Jellycat toys safe for babies?
All Jellycat soft toys are tested for any age suitability. This means that unless the toy carries a specific safety recommendation or suitability message, a Jellycat toy is safe for all ages from birth to old, old age!
The two different labels are shown below, please make sure that you thoroughly read these labels and strictly abide by them!
Who is Jellycat owned by?
Thomas and William Gatacre
Unless you don't already know, Jellycat are a soft toys and gifts business co-founded by brothers Thomas and William Gatacre.
They launched their first range in 1999 and announced themselves as a 'soft toy creator with a difference'.
Over the last few years the company has reinvented the 'soft toy' market with unique, often quirky designs, using quality materials at realistic prices.
Currently there is no one else out there offering anything that compares, so the outlook is very promising, with Jellycat fast becoming the world leader in the soft toy market!
