Monster High™ Dolls In Stock Tracker just launched. These dolls from Mattel, depending on inventory and of course demand, just might be one of the hottest tickets come this holiday season. Who doesn’t like a good doll, let alone a little goth doll?

Prices are already creeping over suggested retail prices, not to mention that inventories appear to be moderately low. If you are looking to get your hands on one or more Monster High dolls, then NowInStock.net might just be able to help.

Check out our Monster High Doll In Stock Tracker. If stock is available, make your purchase. If stock is not available, then register for a FREE account and add the Monster High items you want to your account. When stock becomes available for purchase we will email or TXT alert you that stock is available for purchase.

Yesterday we launched two new mobile phone trackers, one for AT&T phones and the other for Sprint phones. Currently we are only tracking Best Buy for these phones as the other major sites out there make sure that a zip code is entered prior to shopping for phones.

The major reason that spurred these releases is the demand for the Sprint EVO 4G. A lot of users requested that we track this heavy demanded phone and we listened. So if you are in the market for an EVO 4G from Sprint, then head over to our Sprint Phone Tracker. Right after the launch of the tracker yesterday, we picked up the White EVO 4G as in stock at Best Buy; hopefully this trend will continue.

If you would like to find an AT&T Phone, then head over to the AT&T Phone Tracker. If the phone you are looking for is not listed, just submit a Product Suggestion and we will add the item.

I just finished adding a new TXT alert feature to NowInStock.net. You now have the option of receiving TXT alerts in addition to the other alert options. This will work especially good for those of you who have smart phones and can order directly via your mobile browsers. Those that do not have smart phones can still benefit by not having to be in front of your computer all the time checking your emails or browser alerts.

Some VERY important items to note about this alert method:
FEES:
Fees from your mobile carrier will apply. NowInStock.net does NOT charge for this service, but your carrier MAY CHARGE you for each TXT alert. It is your responsibility to know the plan you are using and the fees associated with it.

SUBSCRIBING/UNSUBSCRIBING Alerts:
In order to subscribe or unsubscribe to/from alerts you will need to login to your account and TURN ON/OFF the alerts for each item just as the email alerts do. In order to safeguard your account, newly added items will need to have the TXT alerts option TURN ON before you will receive them. Conversely, all items you no longer want TXT alerted on will need to be TURN OFF from within your account. DO NOT attempt to unsubscribe by responding to TXT alerts with “Remove” or “Stop”, it will NOT work.

BETA TEST:
This is a BETA test. I expect feedback over the next few months to iron out any kinks that may arise. Please take some time and let me know where things are not working properly. I believe everything is working properly, but it would be a gross assumption to assume everything was working properly. As a result, please DO take a minute and visit our contact form to provide some feedback on the system. Good or bad, please let me know.

NON-SHORT CODE METHOD:
Without going into too much detail, typically when you receive or send TXT messages, they are sent via short code format. Short codes are the numbers where you send the message to. Example: “TXT ‘win’ to 123456 for a chance to win a free vacation.” I DO NOT use these short codes. They are way too expensive for me to implement, as a result, I have opted to use TXT messages sent via email.
This means TXT alerts will be sent to [yourNumber]@vtext.com for Verizon users. The last portion is determined when you choose your carrier when signing up. This methodology is not as classy, but does the job in my own personal tests.

Hopefully all kinks will be worked out prior to this holiday season and the TXT alerts will be ready to help all of us score the Microsoft Kinect or what ever else is hot this season.

To sign up for TXT alerts, please login to your account at NowInStock.net. On the left hand side of the page you will see the option to activate TXT alerts. Follow the instructions and you will be receiving TXT alerts in no time.

I just got finished updating the Xbox 360 Elite Tracker to include the latest release from Microsoft, the new 250GB Elite slimed-down version of the console. Nice to see that Microsoft finally added the Wi-Fi to the console as well. No more need to drop $100 in order to have a wireless enable Xbox 360! At any rate, if you are having trouble locating this new model, since the first shipments of stock seem to have been rapidly consumed, then make sure you create an account, and add this item to your alerts. You can visit the Xbox 360 Elite Tracker, register here, or add the alerts to your account.

I will also be adjusting the frequency of which this tracker refreshes according to the demand. So, the more users we get signed up for these alerts, the further the dial will be turned up, so SPREAD THE WORD!

I just finished processing a users request to add in stock tracking for a series of hard drives from Seagate called the Momentus XT Hybrid hard drives.

Register for a FREE account, add the items you want alerted on, and as soon as we see stock available for purchase we will alert you.
