And btw, it says all playmobil pirate sets 20% off. So I would think this would also include the US exclusive pirate sets, which are still on the shelves, in addition to the new pirate series.

Wish I had known about the sale. I could have waited another week or so. On the other I have learned that if you see it on the shelf you better get it because you might not see it again.

I would go ask the manager for a sale price refund. A lot of stores have the 30 day price policy {if you find it on sale or cheeper with in a designated period of time you get a refund for the difference} . Or you just tell them you will return the used toy for a full refund and then just rebuy the set on sale  ;) There is always a way around  :lol: Now I only suggest this if you are going to use the funds for more playmobil.  I just love trying to get fellow collectors more
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Just got the most recent catalog mailer. The 5134 Island, 5135 big ship, and the 5139 fortress sets are all 20% off plus it says 20% off All Playmo pirate sets so maybe the others pirates besides the 3 shown will be too. Good through 11-23

They also have a bonus promo - with any Playmobil purchase in stores of over $65 you can have either the 5898 Kayak, SUV and Moose set or the 5872 Fairy Waterfall with unicorns and willow tree set - Free.

Is this in the US or Canada?

We're in the US. Don't know if it's the same in Canada, but probably not.

If you saved the receipt they will give you an adjustment. This is usually good for 30 days.

Thanks,  I'm still not sure who is where.

I was just looking at prices on TRU vs  the offical PMB stie. It's interesting that they are very different on some things. TRU has the Christmarket 5 dollars more expensive than the Playmobil site, but has the new huge pirate ship $15 cheaper than the official site,  And that's before a sale.  I've made a point of checking both from time to time to get the best deal.  At least it's better than those places who mark the things up 25% then mark it down 20 percent and tell you what a great deal they are giving you.

You mean Tuesday Morning  ::) Their 50% off is more like 25%
