We are an online supplier with no shop premises, which is how the prices stay where they are. Here is what that means when you are choosing.
What we actually stock
Everything here is a physical game you put on a table. Boards, tiles, chips, cones, darts and pieces. Nothing needs a screen, a console or a login, and nothing arrives as a download code.
The range is deliberately short. We carry a handful of games in each category and we know all of them, rather than listing thousands and knowing none.
Buying a game online without handling it first
The two things people get wrong when they cannot pick a box up are size and player count. A giant tumbling tower is a garden game, not a coffee-table one. A 1000 piece jigsaw needs a table it can stay on for a week.
- Check the space. Every product page lists the dimensions the maker publishes. Where a maker does not publish them, the page says so rather than guessing.
- Check who is playing. Some of these are two-player games. Others only come alive with five or six people around a table.
- Check the rules edition. This matters most with mahjong, where Chinese and Western sets are not interchangeable.
- Ask us first. If a page does not answer your question, email before you order. We would rather answer than process a return.
Delivery, and when it is worth paying for
Standard delivery is free across Ireland on orders over €75, and €25 below that. Orders are handled in 24 to 48 hours and arrive in 5 to 7 days.
Express delivery is €25 and it is charged even when your order is over the free threshold, because it buys a faster service rather than a cheaper one. It is worth it when the game is a present with a date attached. It is not worth it otherwise.
Why the prices look low
We buy brand new end-of-line and excess stock from large wholesalers, and we have no premises to pay for. Nothing here is used, refurbished or second hand.
That does mean the range moves. If something on this page suits you, it is worth ordering rather than waiting.
