well i have given it to my kids to play no prob.
it deffinatly depends what's kids type/age up to you to decide but i would say a 5-6 yr old has much better ways to put them selves into danger then playing with BB'S

A regular 5+ kid doesn't swallow things.

Is this the only issue ?

what else can be the issue ? maybe getting to addicted to it
as far as motor skills i vote YES it really makes sense it should help but make sure to get the book

see http://www.getbuckyballs.com/

You mean http://www.getbuckyballs.com/safety/

In the USA some safety instructions or precautions might be there to save them from billion dollar lawsuits, so I wanted to know tachles from people that use them.

I don't think they ship out of US.

I heard they are good, but they are waiting for me in NY.

I can't find anything bigger than 125 count sets on the site -- so I think "Everything" is correct :(

250 was definitely a regular set for sale on the site last time I looked (or maybe it was only 216 balls - at that is a size I see online).

I ordered a while back for a friend for mine and he loved them. Then they were stolen off his desk. I had gotten him the "Original Sidekick",I don't know how many pieces were in it. And I paid 28 after shipping and tax.

Last week I ordered with the 60% of coupon and got the 216 Original Edition for a total of 21.70

Last night I ordered it when I saw the $10 promo going. I just realized that while I'm getting the Black edition which I wanted but wasn't interested in paying extra for, It's only 125 pieces :(.

One order will be for my office desk, the other will be gifted most probably.

The big Q is, are they really going to be shut down and this "sale" is just to empty inventory before its too late to sell? Anyone plan on stocking up and reselling later ?
