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

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.

gpmaguir

good on ye

onlinegamer

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.

but anyways they had wii's left in longford this evening and there offers where'nt advertised at all down here.. paprers or tv

and the offfers run for 2 weeks!

get your skates on tomorrow

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

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!

Woodgate

Where would the nearest Toy City be to Waterford? We used to have a Toymaster but its long gone.

would u like to put money on it? :cool:

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

onlinegamer

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 : )

Dman001

How did you find out about this deal? Do you know how much they were sellimg a 40gb PS3.

Thank you for your positive comments ¬
:rolleyes:

if any1 else find this thread intresting click on the (THANK USER) found at the Bottom Right hand side of this message, its only takes 1 click!!

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?

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...

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

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...

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?

themonk

thanks OP legendary discount dude:pac: will have to trip to toy city tomorrow too and have a look round

onlinegamer

no bother man, have a scout around and let us all know if this is a nationwide offer the ps3 is class, will never be got for 225 euro again for years to come!!

chris1970

i can confirm everything is 50% off marked price, no consoles left in galway & limited software, good deals on general toys, bought a few bits for the nipper for birthday in march, baby stuff and cots included....think it was open yesterday, i arrived about 13.30 galway, place packed but only 4 staff.... they earned their crust to day!!

pandamoanium

Great bargain OnlineGamer, cheers for the heads up!!

Don't mind the naysayers on here, thanks so much for bringing it to everyones attention!

Chris, where in Galway is there a Toy City? Is it in westside beside Aldi?

Coolaboy

Is Kellys in Tullamore a TOYMASTER.

kaiser soza

AFAIK the store in Jervis Street has not sold console games for years, still they have a great selection of Remote control cars, time to buy a Giant Mario Kart r/c and a r/c Plane.

WELLPARK BESIDE PC WORLD/EYE CINEMA, WORTH A LOOK..

Hey I'm confused, so is this Toymaster aswel? I've never heard of Toy City, what would be the closest one to Dublin?

Harpy

anyone know if there's a toy city/masters in limerick?

CFC007

thanks for the heads up:) Anybody know what time they open on Sundays?

deisemum

Thanks OP

My boys won €200 Toymaster vouchers before christmas so guess where we're off to tomorrow.

Skyuser

Woolworths had a closing down 50% off everything in UK, maybe Toy City is heading this direction. Always looks like a big empty waste of money when I go in.

Maybe you're just at the stage of life between puberty and senility where you hide your love of trampolines and action figures from the world.

Didn't the Toymaster in Waterford close a few months ago?

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Thus I was sceptic.

johnny_adidas

can someone please let me know if this is true for toymaster stores, spent yesterday morning having a look around the stores for resistance 2 (ps3) and from what i could see, none of the retailers had it reduced. Im now finished watching an early morning ufc and would be delighted to get good news when i log back in

sudo911

Are the stores open today?
