WI Members Report Faulty Webkinz Caring Valley Tags

Lately in our Webkinz Insider forum, we've seen scattered reports of members receiving Caring Valley tags with unusable sample codes on them.  As these reports have increased and we now have images of the faulty codes, we solicited Ganz for information on what these users should do to get new, working codes.
 
Faulty Caring Valley Code
 
If you receive one of the faulty Caring Valley tags, which will contain the word "SAMPLE" plus a number after it, you should mail the tag directly to Ganz at the following address:
 
Ganz
Attn: Webkinz Customer Service - Tag Issue
One Pearce Rd.
Woodbridge, Ont.
L4L 3T2

Simply include the tag, the store purchased at, and an email address at which Ganz can send the new code.
 
According to Ganz, these tags are part of the quality assurance program and appropriate parties have been notified of the issue.

Webkinz Insider Member Buys Unannounced Webkinz Rooster!!

As many of you Webkinz Insider fans and members know, from time to time our users stumble upon unannounced Webkinz at their local retail stores. Usually, these were mistakenly shipped early by Ganz, and our members know all of the new Webkinz coming out so they know a new one when they see it! In the past, our members have found the unannounced Webkinz Spotted Turtle, unannounced Webkinz Schnauzer, unannounced Webkinz Grey Arabian, and a number of unannounced Lil' Kinz.
 
Webkinz Rooster Plush
 
Today, we bring you news and pictures of the unannounced Webkinz Rooster from EllaBellaBoo99! Here are photos that she took of the Webkinz Rooster plush and the Webkinz tag -- clear proof that the Webkinz Rooster is coming to Webkinz World in the near future! How soon?  We're not sure, but we're going to make the assumption that the Webkinz Rooster is for September.

New Curio Shop Glitch Discovered, Arte Seems Confused

 
The recent Curio Shop update seems to have confused poor old Arte.  As we all know, he doesn't seem to handle programming changes well, and this week's update was no exception.
 
When the Asian accounts hit 4pm just a few minutes ago, a time that Arte had been indicating he would have a Rare item for sale, members with regular Webkinz accounts discovered that they didn't have a Rare item in their Curio Shops.  Members with Deluxe accounts, however, were able to find the Rare item, Manic Monitor, in the special Deluxe section of their accounts.
 
It seems that when Arte gives out his Rare information, he doesn't pay attention to whether the account is a regular account or a Deluxe account.  As a result, he is telling players with regular accounts about Rare items that they won't get a chance to buy.
 
Hopefully the programmers at Ganz wil be able to sort out this glitch soon.  In the mean time, please check out the Rare notice in our forum.  We will bring you the latest information on what time Rare items will be for sale, which Rare items will be for sale, and whether the Rare items will be available on regular accounts or only on Deluxe accounts.  You can even follow our Rare notices on Twitter @WIDOTCOM.
