    Anyone know wher to buy these over here--As you know my wife has only 4 weeks to go and with a 18 months old and now a new one on the way we`re looking at their double buggy/pram.

    Any help appreciated.

    Mothercare sell them.

    I am not sure of anywhere else maybe Tony Kellys.

    Mothercare used to do an information night once a month and at the end of the night you would get a card with 9- 10% off discounts on it.

    Maybe worth checking out cause I think the phil and teds start off around €400 over here.

    Theyre supposed to start at 399 plus the add on seat which is another 100.
    Theres a shop in Naas selling the kit for 700 although the RRP is €399 + €100---rip off Ireland is right.
    I was just wondering if there were any other shops that sell the range.

    Thanks Quality--Ill try Tony Kellys and Mothercare.

    Try a few online sites as they tend to have better deals than the shops - EBay has a couple too...I got the Phil & Ted sport inc. double seat from The Natural Baby Resource http://www.thenaturalbabyresource.com/ as they had a deal on - not sure if they still do - order in Sterling to get the best price!...hth

    I purchased a pram from www.kiddicare.com. It cost 20 quid to deliver to Ireland and was delivered within a few days. It wasnt a Phil and Teds but it may be worth looking at.I found it a great site.Sterling rate is ok too

    We got our Phil & Ted's in mothercare, €399 after Christmas (think it might be €499 normally, but worth looking around), it comes with second seat as standard now, but you have to buy the raincover which is extra.

    I can highly recommend it as a double buggy for a baby and toddler, and then toddler and toddler.

    Hi there,

    I did a lot of research on where to buy mine. Based on one of the replies here I decided on going with kiddicare.com but it was a big mistake. I had to put the money into paypal (they don't take laser cards), then the paypal wouldn't go through over the Irish address not having a zip (their customer service team spent a week trying to see if they could get it through and it didn't). Then I transferred the money to a mastercard based on their suggestion- which costs money in paypal to keep transferring the money so I ended up paying on something I never got. Then I got told they don't accept visa or mastercards that are not UK based (even though they knew I was in Ireland at the time of suggesting this option to me) and they told me to try paypal again.

    The site I did go with is https://www.bellababy.ie I would highly recommend them. I found the site by searching for the phil & teds within Limerick (even though I believe they are actually physically located in Galway). They deliver anywhere in Ireland (and some places in the EU I believe as well). They were kind, helpful, and I had my phil & teds buggy ordered with double kit and cocoon and rain cover within an hour. Then I got an email confirming my order and stating that it will be delivered in 2 business days. I cannot wait to get it and I am thankful I found an Irish company whose price was actually better than the kiddicare.com (UK based) company I was going with, that seems to be easy and pleasant to order from.

    I just thought I would add this level of detail in - in case anyone else is looking for a phil & ted's in Ireland without hassle. I was lucky to find Bella Baby! I also know Smiths has one phil & ted's available but its out of stock and you don't have any extra options or different styles (i knew I was looking for the sport one for myself) And mothercare had one I was considering but you have to buy each piece seperately (the double seat, the cocoon, the buggy, and the rain cover) and it adds up to be a bit pricey.

    Bella baby have great little extras like that bebepod that I plan on ordering when my youngest is old enough for one! :D

    Try http://www.murphysprams.ie/, we just got one from them and it was €450, and it includes the second seat and the rain cover. Also comes with a Phil & Ted's bottle! Could not beat the price.

    They also deliver for €10.
