Can't find the code with any game now. Is it still available?

AC:Origins arrived today(ordered last Saturday) and had a code for 12 months gold printed off from the till with it, I already received an email with a code so I ended up getting two 12 month codes and AC for €35.

Got the Curry's Xbox one s deal a few weeks back, then got this live deal when I bought wildlands twice

Sold the controller to a friend for €25, then sold my old console to cex for €107 and the 2 games, so I got a new console and 26 months of Xbox live for €23

I highly doubt you'll get anything close to comparable for that price to be honest.

Good few here bought the LS30 last year and all had positive things to say so I'm chancing them for the €18.50.

Are you guys using Parcel Motel? Because the last time I tried buying from Argos on eBay and gave the PM address they kept cancelling my order.

Had the same issue last time I tried to order from Argos UK. Pretty sure I paid with PayPal and used my PM address last time as well.

Have given it another go, will see what happens.

Have definitely ordered from them in the past using PM no bother but maybe they are clamping down on Irish sales from UK Argos to restrict us plebs to paying the 'Irish' prices from Argos.ie.

Have you tried pay with Paypal/ Revolut?

Yea used PayPal.

Addresspal from AnPost might be a PM alternative since they've got a hub in London rather than NI

They cancelled an order to AddressPal from me last month as well (after they cancelled the order with the PM address).

I've tried Parcel Wizard as a last throw of the dice. Have already had an order with PM cancelled.

PW order cancelled as well. I contacted them, and they obviously have all these mail forwarding addresses blacklisted for some reason.

Stupid thing is that after looking at reviews of them, I decided I wanted them since I'm not overly happy with my HyperX Cloud Stingers. Have gone and ordered them on Amazon now

Addresspal order of this was cancelled this morning as well, they're on the ball with this unfortunately doesnt seem to be a workaround for us poor paddies.

I spoke to them, Argos, last week on the phone and they said that every order with a parcel motel type service will be cancelled during processing and this is a directive from senior management.

Reason cited is the inability to track packages beyond the receiving depot, which is understandable

A polite way of say that either a lot of packages were going missing or a lot of people abused the service by claiming that packages went missing

Its only a matter of time before Amazon and the rest, follow suit.

Hopefully the likes of Amazon put something in place for us when Brexit gets sorted to have no need for the forwarding services.

They're building a distribution centre in south Dublin atm. Expect the http://amazon.ie domain to actually become a website instead of a url redirect to Amazon UK.

You can also expect the prices to go up as they'll be in euro with the usual paddy tax.

Where are they building it? I know they are building a data center in the Belgard Road, but never knew about a distribution center.

I'm not sure, I've only heard they're building a distribution centre. As for the data centre Amazon already have a few of them dotted around the city and are nearly always increasing their capacity for AWS.

Assassin's Creed Unity - 39c from CDKeys.

Cant go wrong for that price. It got fairly slatted upon release but apparently with the updates that followed its a decent enough play.

It really really really isn’t. They took everything that was fun or interesting from the previous games and removed it from Unity. Free is too expensive for this turd

Roger Hassenforder

For 39c how bad can it be.
Even if it's brutal, not even the price of a packet of Meanies.
