    Was wondering if anyone out there knows which shops - apart from Peats, which has one which is out of stock - know of stores in Dublin that sell Saitek joysticks?

    Thanks,

    P.

    You only realise how bigger PC gaming is in mainland Europe compared to here when, on the Paris metro, there are huge billboards for those Saitek rudder/yokes!

    Do you think an online store dedicated to ireland would work?? its an idea.Any of the shops in Dublin have reduced the size of there pc section drastically,its all wii xbox and ps3 it does my head in.
    Has anyone ever seen the pmdg 747 on the box on the shelf? or the md11 or the leveld 767..
