Scalextric

Suse_2

I have a 6 year old who would love Scalextric for Christmas. Trouble is trying to find one that isn't over £100 and is in stock!

Would you all be so kind as to help me find one for him?

He'd love a F1 set, but the cheapest I've seen it is £120 in Woolworths.

Thanks you!

Hi there,

I've never used this company, but somebody posted the link in one of the argos theads and I thought it might come in useful so I saved it.

They seem really good prices for Scalextric, but I would phone and check stocks if I were you.

Good luck

I posted a similar question a couple of weeks ago on this site and was very kindly given this link

All scalextrics sets are half price and delivery is very quick - I have just received one of the micromania sets which I ordered for my son. It is worth giving the shop a call and they will tell you exactly which sets they have left - they have a few branches dotted around and will do their utmost to get you the set you want. I found them really helpful and can highly recommend them!
Good luck.

(sorry to post the long URL - not sure how to shorten it - advice would be appreciated!)

These sets are amazing value for money - especially the F1 set. You don't normally see them discounted at all -just hope the company deliver them for you.

I've just ordered a micromania set for my Husband. If it doesn't come in time for Christmas, he can have it for St Valentine's Day.

Unbelievable price, almost seems to good to be true!

Thanks for this tip.

We ordered the micromania terrrorhawks set for our son. It came in a couple of days and looks really good - especially for £35! I am sure he and dad will have lots of fun with it!

Hope yours comes in time for Xmas!

Just ordered the Rally set.

They rang this morning and told us the F1 sets are all sold out and they can't get anymore before Christmas.

BUT! They offered us a 4 track racing version with Porsche's instead (still Scalextric). Only £10 more. It was the last one in the shop, so we took it.

I am impressed by the service - not many shops would ring you and offer you an alternative.
