Webkinz, the popular stuffed animals, were joined by a special charm in June 2007. The Webkinz Charm is a piece of jewelry that can be worn by the child on a charm bracelet, or hung around a Webkinz’ neck as a necklace or collar.
Kids love Webkinz Charms, mostly because they’re Webkinz, and also because they can get two of a kind and wear the same jewelry as their Webkinz, or put charms on their Webkinz to match them. Webkinz Charms are more popular with girls than boys, of course, and their popularity makes them hard to find at times.
No items matching your keywords were found.
Webkinz Charms have become difficult to find, as many stores are out of stock, and one of the best ways to find them is to go online and shop among the many Webkinz stores online. Some of the charms are relatively rare, and prices can range from under $20 to over $50, depending on the charm you’re after and the store you visit.
Before you buy a Webkinz Charm, and even before you start shopping, make sure you know exactly which charms your child wants. If you can get a list of three Webkinz Charms, you will probably find that at least one of the three is easier to find, and thus less expensive. This may not be true if your child absolutely has to have the most rare Webkinz Charm available, but otherwise you may be able to find a relative bargain.
If you do a Google search for Webkinz Charms, you’ll find numerous independent stores selling these charms, as well as lots of listings on eBay. You should have no problem locating the specific charms you’re looking for.
Whether you shop on eBay or search out an independent Webkinz store, make sure you’re buying from a reputable seller. On eBay, check the seller’s feedback and look for any complaints about counterfeit charms, missing codes, and that kind of problem.
If you visit a Webkinz store on the web, make sure you can pay by PayPal or credit card, so that you have a guarantee in case of a problem. Look for signs of credibility. A Better Business Bureau seal is great, but also look for things like a store owner’s name, phone number, physical address, and some way to contact them. If you’re not sure about a store, send an email to their contact address with a question. Keep in mind that customer service will never be better than before you buy.
The main thing to keep in mind when searching for Webkinz Charms is that they are out there, and you can buy them. If you don’t find the price you’re looking for today, try looking again in a few days, as things change rapidly, and you may find a good auction price even on a rare charm.

If you ever find yourself wondering what the big deal is about the Webkinz Pet of the Month, ask a ten-year-old. You’ll likely find out far more than you asked, including not only what Webkinz are, and that they’re really really cool, but also why the Pet of the Month is so popular and why it’s important to own or buy that pet while it’s POTM.
Basically, the Pet of the Month is a Webkinz that is designated “Pet of the Month” for a specific month. The upcoming pet for next month is announced on the Pet of the Month page in Webkinz world, so that all Webkinz World inhabitants will know what pet to buy for the next month and what kind of cool stuff in Webkinz World will come with the Pet of the Month.
The main point of the Pet of the Month is, of course, cool stuff online. While it’s nice to have the Pet of the Month, the best part is having all kinds of cool toys and extra stuff in Webkinz World. This can be furniture, pet clothing, food or other items. While these things don’t sound all that attractive to mere grown-ups, they are a very big deal to Webkinz World’s kid audience.
In fact, the Pet of the Month loot is so popular, Webkinz World hides “loopholes” on the Today’s Activities page. If you click on a loophole, you can get stuff that only Pet of the Month owners get—and you get it without adopting the Pet of the Month.
The pets are not left out of the coolness on Webkinz World. Pet of the Month owners get free stuff for their pets, and get to take part in special activities only for POTM owners—and their pets. Becoming part of this cool fraternity each month, and interacting with a new pet, are big attractions for kids who love Webkinz.
Webkinz are not just, or even primarily, about the pets. The whole world of Webkinz is centered around interacting with your pets, your friends and their pets on Webkinz World online. By buying the Pet of the Month and participating in those special activities with the POTM, kids feel they’re part of a special group of people.
Webkinz Pet of the Month is an inexpensive way for kids to feel cool and part of something, and they can do it from their own computers. They can interact, learn and play with other kids who like the same things they do, in a safe environment, and learn a little along the way with Webkinz games and activities.
While most of us aren’t going to start buying Webkinz and hanging out with our kids on Webkinz World, it’s nice to know that when they spend their allowance on the Pet of the Month, they’re buying into something and becoming a part of that pet’s group for the month, and not just spending their money on bubble gum. Not that there’s anything wrong with bubble gum, of course.

If your kids, or you, are crazy about Webkinz, you may get frustrated looking for specific pets locally, especially if you’re looking for a popular pet or live in a more rural area where there aren’t many stores selling Webkinz.
Buying Webkinz online can help you get the pets you want, and you can often find a good deal on a pet that’s been retired or is particularly hard to find. Online auctions, particularly eBay, are a popular place to buy Webkinz online, and these auctions can offer you a great way to get the Webkinz you want. However, you do need to watch out for a couple of possible problems when buying on eBay.
If you know what to watch out for, buying Webkinz on eBay will help you build your collection of Webkinz quickly.
Before you buy anything from anyone on eBay, check their feedback. When you buy Webkinz, checking feedback lets you know that this seller offers real Webkinz. There are a lot of fake Webkinz circulating, on eBay and elsewhere. You don’t want to spend your money on a fake pet that you can’t adopt on Webkinz World. While it’s hard to understand the type of person who would do this, there are many counterfeiters on eBay. Essentially stealing from children takes a particular kind of mind, but there are those people out there.
The other problem can be as much a matter of misunderstanding as actual fraud. If you’re buying the Webkinz for a child, or planning to give the secret code to a child, make sure the code comes with the Webkinz and has not been used before. If the listing does not specifically stipulate this, use the “Ask seller a question” button to clarify before you bid. Remember that you need to ask any questions before placing a bid, because bids are legally binding.
When buying Webkinz, or anything else, online, look for sellers who offer a money-back guarantee. If you receive the pet and it’s not in the condition you expected, or you did not get the secret code, you should be able to return the pet and get your money back.
To get another layer of protection, pay by credit card or PayPal, so that you can get your money refunded by doing a “chargeback” if you don’t get what you ordered. While this almost never happens, knowing that you can force the merchant to return your money is a final measure of comfort.
There are several advantages to buying Webkinz online, including finding older, rarer pets and getting good deals on pets you’d really like to own. While many people are still cautious about the web and buying online, you can successfully buy online just by taking a few precautions. Deal only with sellers who have good reputations. Pay with a source that can cancel the payment. Use common sense. Ask questions before you bid.
If you follow all of these tips, you’ll be purchasing Webkinz successfully on eBay in no time at all.

When you bring your Webkinz home, you’ll open the sealed secret code. Make sure before you buy the Webkinz that the code is sealed; it can only be used once. Most stores are very good about making sure the codes don’t get broken into, so this is not a major concern.
If you do get a Webkinz without a secret code, immediately take it back to the store for an exchange. Make sure you don’t lose your secret code, as it can’t be replaced. This is to protect all Webkinz owners, as well as the makers of Webkinz.
When you open the code, you enter it into the Webkinz World website, and give your pet a name. This gives you a “virtual” pet, of the same breed as your physical pet and with the same name. When you get on the Webkinz World site to adopt your pet, Ms. Birdy, a Webkinz World helper, will guide you through the adoption process.
You can choose your pet’s name, and you will receive an adoption certificate online with your name and your pet’s name. You can print this adoption certificate out, if you like, and save it or hang it on the wall.
Once you’ve adopted your Webkinz in Webkinz World, you’ll get a room for your pet, some food, and other special items, depending on the pet you have. You can upgrade your pet’s room and “buy” items for your pets by earning Webkinz money.
Earning money on Webkinz World is a lot more fun than earning money in the real world. You can play games, answer quizzes and do fun stuff to earn money. In fact, to earn money on Webkinz World, all you have to do is play and have a good time. That’s a great way to earn money!
When you adopt pets on Webkinz World, all of your pets will be in the same “place” on the website. You’ll have all of your pets; you don’t have separate memberships for each pet. So you can play and take care of all your pets at once, without having to sign in for each different animal.
One of the most fun features of Webkinz is being able to play with real friends on the website. Friends from school, or friends you’ve met on Webkinz, can play with you and your pets, and their pets can play with your pets, and so on. When they called it Webkinz World, they weren’t kidding.
Adopting pets and playing and taking care of pets on Webkinz World is the big attraction of Webkinz, and you’ll have a great time playing with all the animals on the website.
