    Might be an idea to try Options in the Eyre Square centre (if they are still open). They always have unusual random stuff...otherwise maybe Evergreen health store near the Kings head? (Upstairs) or there is a shop on Dominic Street called Himalaya I think and they may have something...

    Or maybe that shop that sells "ethnic" stuff in the Eyre Sq shopping centre. Same level as New Look, where Claire's is on the other floor. Also try the Oxfam and Fairtrade shops.

    atlantic was selling them for 9.99, about 7 inch high, black and gold
    i got some of mine from ebay, but the postage is a killer.
    remember not to touch his head when you get one and place in a high ish place, ( its respect for the buddha, i know as im a buddhist lol)
    good luck with that Nam Myoho Renge Kyo :):)

    They're closed, but the one up in the galway shopping centre on the headford road is still open.

    B and Q had a (pretty rustic) one a while ago. Try a couple of the shops in Bridge Mills. Yep, tiny ones in Evergreen, but think Himalaya is a good bet

    Dont Forget to rub the Budda's head for luck when you get it. Budda's are very luck to have around and custom says toi rub his head brings you luck.

    Happy Hunting.
