    To which toymaster store(s) does this refer and do you have any sample prices ?

    Only reason I ask is that most of the games for nintendo wii and ds lite were about €20-€30 dearer per game than in smyths and game store up to last week for sure.

    I would be interested in a DS lite if the price was 50% off but I am sceptical that Toymaster would be capable of delivering something temptingly attractive although I will check back to see if its worth heading up to malahide road :o

    Their website says UP TO 50% off. Completely different story, I cannot imagine any place knocking 50% off fixed price products like consoles.

    To be honest, I'm getting pretty sick of opening threads on here that look like they contain real bargain alerts only to find they are misrepresented or just plain inaccurate. It's starting to devalue this forum.

    So a PS3 is going for €200? I rang Athlone Toy City (I thought ToyMaster=Toy City) but they were out of PS3s. Stupidly, I never asked how much for one.

    Did a search. No xbox, wii, or playstation on the site. I smell a shill.

    NOO! I was after the Roscommon number for ages and now they are closed. Cheer for the number though. Where did you buy the PS3 and was there more?

    They did has 25% off everything before christmas but it wasn't advertised!! Girl just said it to us at the till that anything that wasn't already reduced is 25% off so I would imagine this could be the same! Just a pity that all their games etc are overpriced at about €70 a go for really old titles in Longfords store.

    As far as i know they are called toymaster in the north & toy city down here. hence why they hace a co.uk site for toymaster.

    Good man, thanks. Im sure someone will get a decent bargain.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭onlinegamer


    They also have cars jeeps and bikes some priced at up to 450 euro befor the offer price.

    I dont know about the over priced games jonny24ie. i picked up some ps3 titeles for 15euro today, where 50 down to 29, then the 50% on top of that :) also got the ps3 verson of Buzz 80euro minus the 50% off at till = 40euro - longford branch

    plenty of games in stock!

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,892 ✭✭✭grimm2005


    would the toymaster (toy city?) beside smyths at jervis be doing this offer? the website dosn't even seem to list games consoles.

    It all seems a bit suspect :confused:

    i dont live in dublin so i dont know what offers they are running there.. i will post a pic of bought i have sitting in my hall.. im afraid my camera cannot get a clear shot of the print on the receipt but you will just have to take my word on that : )


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,892 ✭✭✭grimm2005


    Thats a damn good deal, will head in to town early tomorrow to check it out. Not particularly looking at getting a ps3 but its a bargain at that price, purely for the blu ray.

    So are toymaster and toy city the same then?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,451 ✭✭✭Onikage


    Who is kevin roscommon?

    Seriously, that looks reasonably convincing. Could be just that store though. May stick the head into the Athlone bracnch to see what's happening tomorrow...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭onlinegamer


    playstation was bought in rosscommon.. trampoline and car seat was bought in longford!

    kevin is just the bloke serving on the tills

    ring befor coming down save yourself a trip report back if any of the stores are doing the same offer

    Athlone, Rosscommon and Longford are running the offer


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    There's one beside me at work. I'll drop in tomorrow at lunch. What actually looking for the 360 Arcade, if that deal were on I'd get the elite for cheaper, or even the arcade for sub 100 euro...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭Quackles


    I'm all over that action :) Need to buy a new cot mattress, time's getting tight! :pac:

    Im pretty sure all those stores are run by O Connor so it may only be those stores.

    who is oconnor and why did he decide to drop everything to half price, would they be going bust by any chance?
