    First I have heard about it. According to their website, there are only 5 Stan James shops in Ireland, so it wouldn't be a huge loss.

    If they do leave Boyles will probably take their shops anyway, that seems to be the done thing lately.

    I heard that the one in Waterford City is closing on Sunday.

    The one in Macroom closed a while back. Was always a little quieter than Boyles and the prices weren't very generous either, even compared to Boyles.

    Market is saturated I'd say would be the main reason they're pulling out.

    I didn't know the one in Macroom closed, Of what I've heard there closing all the rest of them, and TBH they weren't great at giving the punter special offers.
