They're definitely seasonal. I believe most puffers are spring/summer fish in the stores. You might be able to find one online but I don't know where.

There is a fellow in the UK who has advertised one in our Classifieds.

I know where there were 3 or 4 last week. Depends as to where you are in the UK for a visit. These were in Wigan.
