*** playmobil damaged box sale info ***

[yousaidit]

i have just rung playmobil and the lovely lady said they are starting their damaged box sale prob 20th of htis month with emails sent out poss on 19th.

if anyone gets the email, as mine is dicky, could you really really kindly pop an update on this thread as to whats being sold so i can nosed for dd's christmas present

one good turn and all that... !!

hope thas of use to you folks!!

Thank you for the alert - I phoned really late in the day, and got the last "brachiasaurus with rocks", when I thought I would be too late.

I might just put that phrase on the current thread "things you never thought you'd say.."

BTW i am new to the world of Playmobile but Tesco had a big Plane for £20 in their half price sale in store so no postage!

DS has only just found the joys of Playmobile when i got him the Pirate island on a whim for his Birthday, he loved it!

Mine has already arrived. In perfect condition. Not a mark or a dent on the box. Literally - nothing. Happy days. We are one dinosaur nearer Christmas.

I got an update email - there is still lots there

I'll have to phone them again - my e-mail never arrived

But I went to Toys R Us ( i know I know, it was pretty hellish) today, and in case anyone was thinking about buying Brachiosaurus With Rocks.. its £14.99 in Toysrus, but £19.99 in the damaged box sale - so its worth checking around if there's something you particularly want.

titsalinebumsquash- did you notice if it was a black private jet or a big white plane?
I was told the private jet was £20 in Tesco so guessing its that one.

The one for £20 in Tesco is the black private jet not the white commercial plane (longer), unfortunately as this is the one my son wants.

I can't see it cheaper than £29.99 anywhere, even though it was £16.99 earlier in the year in Tesco which is bugging me!

Cheapest I found it online (doing a Google shopping search) inc postage was £36.
I want the nativity set too so will prob get them both off playmobil website as its £35 there and will be free delivery if I get them both.

I thought the sale was starting today, so rang really late, but managed to get the Gladiators arena for £40 quid which was good for me.

I did notice, though, that Boots are doing their 3 for 2 offer on all kinds of toys, so I may well get my Pyramid (the other thing on DD's list) form there. I just can't decide what else I want to make it worthwhile.

Toys R Us have some great deals too. And WH smiths are doing 3 for 2 deals on smaller sets (but watch out, cos they charge more for quite a few sets too...the blighters).

Can anyone forward me the update email please. I am registered for the playmobil newsletter but I didn't get anything sent to me.

I am looking for the cement mixer, maintenance truck and camper van.

Nappy - have just forwarded it to you.

The plane in our tesco was the white one

oooh where are you? I have been to 4 different tescos recently and they are all the smaller, darker private plane - as in their catalogues and website - maybe your branch has let one slip through!

I am obsessed with not paying £30 for it now, just on principle because it was cheaper earlier on in the year - wish I had got it then ....

I in Lancs , i got one for my nephew.

I gave up and got the plane from the playmobil website. It was £35 but as I ordered over £80 of stuff it was free delivery.

if anyone is still looking for the white plane they've got them in Costco for £20!

Before looking at the damaged box sale (remember it's £6 postage on top) look at this seller on amazon marketplace. He also uses the same name on Ebay.
