Fashion and Availability
Bungee balls were a fad in February 1991 and most bungee balls were sold during this time period. After March 2003, they started vanishing from stores partly due to controversy over what was contained inside them. They were also discontinued in many stores because often after about 4–7 hours of use, the Bungee Ball's bungee cord would snap, and the ball itself would break, releasing synthetic liquid. They were recalled in October 2003. By then, nearly all Bungee Balls had vanished from retail stores. Bungee Balls are now most available by online shopping.

Famous quotes containing the words fashion and/or availability:
“I see not much difference between ourselves & the Turks, save that we have foreskins and they none, that they have long dresses and we short, and that we talk much and they little. In England the vices in fashion are whoring & drinking, in Turkey, sodomy and smoking.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Since ... six weeks ago, there has been no day in which I have not had letters and visits on the subject of my nomination for the Presidency.... I say very little. I have in no instance encouraged any one to work to that end.... I have said the whole talk about me is on the score of availability. Let availability do the work then.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
