Is the Evening Echo sold anywhere in Dublin?

    I know it's a Cork paper, but I thought there might be places in Dublin that buy in a few copies of regional papers, for people who've relocated from those regions.

    I thought Easons on O'Connell Street might do so, but I rang them and they don't stock it.

    Easons would have been your best bet alright although I think they tend to stock the local/regional weeklies.

    Stocking a Cork newspaper in Dublin on a daily basis would be tough work and is unlikely to be very profitable.

    What about Reads on Nassau St.? They used to have a wide range of newspapers, at least before they got done up.

    Failing that ring Thomas Crosbie Holdings' head office or the Evening Echo itself; there's a chance they might know who stocks it outside of Cork.

    Is the Examiner no longer printed in Cork?

    It is but it's a national newspaper.

    Never seen it on sale north of Urlingford.

    Surprised that somewhere like Easons in Hueston Station wouldn't sell it. Would it cost that much to shove a bale in with the guard?

    I seem to recall seeing Belfast Telegraphs on sale in Connolly.

    Now owned by Easons flogen, unlikely they'd stock it if Easons itself doesn't

    Yeah, I'd say it's unlikely because of that but worth a punt all the same.
