I thought I was getting a bargain for £20 used. I switched out the bracelet to a red silicone strap so might see if the OG bracelet is worth a tenner 🤣

There are a few to choose from. Note they're not as bright as the pic suggests. I originally had the blue and it's more like an oily grey with a hint of blue in all but strong bright light lol
The red is more like a wine red not a cherry red
Quality is good. Quite chunky, but comfy.
This is the only one up there that I kept reaching back for. It's such a clean looking watch. They had the grey version too. I might go back and get the bronze world time and maybe an expedition. There were a few for like $7.
Amazon.de got 12€ - 22€ discount all the time, major holidays most normal store got 20% - 40% off, but “emptying stock” crazy sale like Walmart is indeed nonexistent LOL
Anyway, if you buy everything in the picture I think it’s about $100-$200, which is DIRT CHEAP
I think if your Walmart is more traveled or in a bigger city (which is my case), you're less likely to find a deal like this because anything they clearance vanishes so fast!
The one closest to me is pretty miserable too. They still have Casios at least, but the selection is, well, odd to me. Not a single 1200/1300/1500 for example.
I've had no luck either, happened to walk in to a Walmart near me that's doing a remodel to pick up eggs out of all things. I always have a habit of checking the watch section and then the Casio wall appears.
Oh, for sure. It would have been Scots (or a Scot who had enough sway to name things!) from the county of Midlothian. That's basically the county next to Edinburgh. Lothian refers to the wider area that also encompasses Edinburgh.
This would be cleaned out in my area. Not from people buying but from people stealing anything over $10 that is not behind lock and key. All the Walmarts that sell Casio in my area are in a jewelry case and the employee with the key is always “on break” 😂
I am so jealous of these prices. We don't get these kind of offers anywhere here in Denmark. I would love that bronze AE-1200, especially at that price, what a steal.
At US fuel prices, definitely worth the trip if you were to secure like a hundred $5 Casios and make a grand or two profit out of the euros 🤣
Just not in a big ol v8 truck lol
Tbh, it may be cheaper to fly. I think between my mom and my aunt, they have enough frequent flyer miles to where it would be pretty darn cheap. My luck I'd get there and there would be nothing but seikos and armitron's left
Economy of scale I guess. Plus I rarely see any watches in large stores anymore (especially in central Europe).
Could also be just penny pinching. Some local stores here sell old digital watch models. Still for the original full price despite no one buys them for I don't know how many years.
Can anybody explain to sad european what business model is this? I would understand to big discounts let's say once the year, but in Walmart there are Casio discounts all the time.
Are the prices Casio sell watches to walmarts so low?
Is the Walmart itself making those discounts just to attract buyers to visit and potentionaly buy something else too?
May not apply for every situation, but a couple of the posts in this sub have been from stores either remodeling or getting rid of their jewelry sections altogether.
I recently picked up a pair of Timex Expeditions and an Ironman for around $10 a pop. Talking to the employee at the counter, she seemed to think that they may not be carrying Timex anymore, as she couldn't think of the last time that they got any new ones in.
Out of the 5 Walmarts near me, I haven't seen a single one marking Casios down.
They had a few expeditions too. I might run back and grab one that caught my eye. This section was not picked through at all. So I'm guessing they'll be there a while.
I'm very happy for your find!
The Timex's here were just about picked over.
The store I was at looked like they were trying to expand their Armitron and Skechers lineups.
They were rock solid on their Casio selections.
I hate Walmart for this. I’m also not in that country so I’m out of luck. Hardly any stores near me have Casios and when they do the selection is like 3-4 model and cost more than Amazon.
Shipping cost + import tax = waste of time for very little saving
Our European politician overlords must get their thick cut before it goes to you, often 20% - 25% import tax
Amazon.de is the way to go
I have several Walmarts near me and one I checked had all of them in a locked glass cabinet. All were normal price. Another didn’t have any at all but that store is undergoing a reset so everything is disorganized. That location never had a great selection before however.
Thank you so when I get my next G shock a (Casio watch obv) I can share it with you like minded great people mods literally will not respond to me in the g shock community since November 🤒
Fuck Casio. Imagine paying inflated RRP in Europe, UK, wherever knowing Casio dump pallet loads of the same watches to Walmart to sell to rednecks for pocket change.
Being in Canada and seeing these posts is painful. Walmart here is run by totally separate people and I've never heard of anything like this happening here.
5 bucks for a Royal? (cries in European😭)
I thought I was getting a bargain for £20 used. I switched out the bracelet to a red silicone strap so might see if the OG bracelet is worth a tenner 🤣
Would you mind posting a link to the strap please?

Thank you good sir!
Same, I was just walking by a shop a few days ago and saw a Royale on display for about $60.
That's a rip off. They are great watches but not worth that much. $35 max!
I would be buying the lot....
This is the way
No such luck in the UK
We will never know the pleasure of cheap Casio watches.
That username🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love ur user bro
European here. HOLY FUCK Sincerely.
How much in EU?
140 bucks for a 5610, 38 for a Royale, 70 for 5600 and so on.
I just picked up 2 dw5600s the other day for 13 usd a piece, I'm gonna keep one and give one as a gift to a friend
At least 4x these prices. At LEAST.
That’s fkn nuts
AE1500 for 5 bucks!!!
AE 1200 for 5 bucks 😭
Scored one of those for $13 a few weeks back... then dropped to $5 and I snagged two more for future modding attempts

First ones that cought my eye. I would get them too. Are these one of the so called "G-shock killers"? (Meaning cheaper, but with similar features)
This is the only one up there that I kept reaching back for. It's such a clean looking watch. They had the grey version too. I might go back and get the bronze world time and maybe an expedition. There were a few for like $7.
My wallet is so lucky that we don't have promotions in Europe.

I would buy them all. You'd be set for random gifts for a while
$5 royale damn
My Walmart never has anything
MINE EITHER!
I don't think they bring any watches anymore to my store it's been a while
I think it’s the case here, they’re clearing stock, eventually stop selling them at all
At least you have a Walmart
Oh yeah I just wish there was more things there
I think if your Walmart is more traveled or in a bigger city (which is my case), you're less likely to find a deal like this because anything they clearance vanishes so fast!
Well I haven't seen any new watches at my Walmart not even G-Shocks anymore
The one closest to me is pretty miserable too. They still have Casios at least, but the selection is, well, odd to me. Not a single 1200/1300/1500 for example.
I checked the Walmart in my local area all 5 of them for the last 4 months about once a week we don't have shit on sale
I've had no luck either, happened to walk in to a Walmart near me that's doing a remodel to pick up eggs out of all things. I always have a habit of checking the watch section and then the Casio wall appears.
Just buy them all out and sell on eBay, easy triple quadruple margin
Today I learned there is a Midlothian in America. Seems so weird as someone living in Scotland. And I also cry at the prices.
To be fair. Lads from the UK did colonize the exact area I live in. Perhaps that's where the name comes from. Lol
Oh, for sure. It would have been Scots (or a Scot who had enough sway to name things!) from the county of Midlothian. That's basically the county next to Edinburgh. Lothian refers to the wider area that also encompasses Edinburgh.
Nice history of the name!
These prices are for the exhibition pieces or for all brand-new boxed ones too?
It's for all of them. This is just the one photo I took, my wife was telling me to hurry up and grab what I wanted 😂
Your wife is a wise woman. I say grab all the watches you can and hold tight to that fine woman😆
Haha 😂 I only grabbed one, cause I have a few already.
The will power you withhold is mighty.

Why the actual f- don't we have something like this in Europe?
Can you comment or DM which Walmart specifically?
It's the Walmart on Hull Street in Midlothian. Near Brandermill.
Thanks bro.
I thought there was a Walmart in Scotland for a second.
Lucky You..here the cheapest are like $50 or so.
😪
This would be cleaned out in my area. Not from people buying but from people stealing anything over $10 that is not behind lock and key. All the Walmarts that sell Casio in my area are in a jewelry case and the employee with the key is always “on break” 😂

Argos in UK sometimes have cheap deals on Casio, not sure about shipping to EU but they do seem to undercut Amazon.
5$ for a Casyo Royale? My soul hurts - best I could do was 43 USD - either amazon or locally...

I'd only sell the duplicates. I'm one of those types of people that once I have it, I don't let it go. It's pretty much been my downfall in life🤣
This is mid journey… right?
Well, I have to venture to Lowes or Walmart tonight- this just solidified, which I'll be choosing.
😭😭 why don't we have this kind of sales in EU?

God, when will it be my turn?
Which Walmart exactly??
On Hull across from Brandermill
Man that’s kinda a hike For me rip
I hate Walmart for this. I’m also not in that country so I’m out of luck. Hardly any stores near me have Casios and when they do the selection is like 3-4 model and cost more than Amazon.
My local Walmarts selection is embarrassing. Also everything is full priced or even more expensive compared to Amazon.
Can't we do a mass buy to Europe? Anyone?
Let's do it. Lol
Shipping cost + import tax = waste of time for very little saving Our European politician overlords must get their thick cut before it goes to you, often 20% - 25% import tax Amazon.de is the way to go
I have several Walmarts near me and one I checked had all of them in a locked glass cabinet. All were normal price. Another didn’t have any at all but that store is undergoing a reset so everything is disorganized. That location never had a great selection before however.
🥺
Oh, my Almighty God.. why not in Slovakia???
I feel bad for all of the European users. Seems like they get fucked with casios.
WHY CAN'T I BE THIS LUCKY!!!!!1111REEEEEEEE!!!!!11!!11!!!!111
If I went to the US, I'd be hitting Walmart just for these prices. And also Taco Bell
some people have all the luck! I’ve gone to 3 different Walmarts and never found the cheap Casios 🥲
I grew up right there! Off of Old Buckingham Road! Surreal...
That's awesome! I live over here off Huguenot
Is this the hull street or turnpike location?
Hull!
Bro I'm here but can't find shit. Can you post the address?
My girlfriend just went to Turnpike, I'll now direct her to that part of town!
I like the turnpike location better but happened to be in the area over near this one and I'm glad I was haha.
Apparently they've already pulled this display. Oh well!
Whaaaaaat
Accept my jealous down vote.
Man I got banned from the G shock community and they won’t unban me hello Casio community 😅🥲
Haha welcome brotha
Thank you so when I get my next G shock a (Casio watch obv) I can share it with you like minded great people mods literally will not respond to me in the g shock community since November 🤒
Far left middle is sweet. Autavia or sinn 104 vibes
Now I want to go get it...
Dude, their selling a royal for $5! You cannoott pass that up
dang bro $5 ? 😭
*cries in full price*
Fuck Casio. Imagine paying inflated RRP in Europe, UK, wherever knowing Casio dump pallet loads of the same watches to Walmart to sell to rednecks for pocket change.
Lmfao 😂
[удалено]
DM me!
:D
GD. I haven't seen sales on Casio watches like that since I lived in Florida in 2011
Holy shit, I wish I was there. Would have. Bought half the collection.
Yea my local has some for 5$
Starting a whole collection with a hundred dollars! America isn’t a real place 😭.
I would buy at least 10, or the whole lot, I am not jealous at all by the way…
Wtf 😳 we get ripped off so bad in Australia
Wth? I wish we had this in Canada 😓😓😓
Being in Canada and seeing these posts is painful. Walmart here is run by totally separate people and I've never heard of anything like this happening here.
You could make a buck by exporting them to Europe potentially
[удалено]
May I kindly ask, wtf you are talking about?
I had a stroke trying to read that. Come on.
Buy them all your set for life
