    Default Is this a good price for Magnatiles?

    I can get 2 starter sets of magnatiles (32 pieces each) for $75. Is that a good price or not? I've never purchased these before so I'm not sure what the average price is.

    We have purchased 2 100 piece sets in the past- with coupons codes we were able to get them for around 100/ 110 each. You really need the 100 piece set to make the magnatiles worth it!

    My local toy store sells the 32 piece set for $50.

    I disagree with pp. We got the 32 piece set and it was great. Someone bought us a 2nd 32 piece set- so we now have 64 pieces- and I feel like that is a fine amount. We were ok with just 32. So many times I have held off on toy purchases b/c my budget could only afford small sets and people told me they wouldn't be good enough. I finally decided to just get what I could afford and the kids have been totally happy.

    We got a 100-piece set in November and my 2 year old is always asking for "more squares." I think that's what he's going to tell Santa he wants for Christmas.
    The 100-piece is a better deal but 64 pieces for $75 isn't bad. I just picked up a 32-piece set at a local toy store for @$40 (priced at $50 with a 20% off coupon.)

    I think $75 is a great price. I have been searching for the best deal. The lowest I have been able to find is $80 for two 32 piece sets at Learning Express with a $20 off of $100 coupon.

    My DS has one set of 32 pieces already that MIL bought him. Magnatiles is the only thing he has asked for from Santa.

    That's my 3 year old. He even asked for "just squares" I guess I can tell him the triangles are for his baby brother

    I don't think it's a bad deal but it's not a great one either..... I try to get them for about $1/magnatile

    That's what I was going to say.
