Well I'm totally bemused now , in a good way , because I went to get the link to the tablet I bought earlier today to show that it was priced at €81 but now I see it's €102 euro...

...and my paypal receipt says €70 !
And If I don't get hit by customs as you say I'll be delighted : )
There was a few in flash sales earlier. I think HongKongeek mainly target Europe (As opposed to the likes of Geekbuying who mainly target the U.S.). So maybe their flash sales are finished for the day.
I put it in my cart earlier, and it's still in my cart at €81
Here is the bit about the Duty/VAT. - http://www.hongkongeek.com/en/content/8-CUSTOMS-DUTY-FREE-VAT-PAID-BACK0 -
^^ If I remember correctly and I think I do when I put it in my cart it still said 81. It wasn't until I pressed 'pay now' and before I went to Paypal did it suddenly drop to 70 without any explanation on the invoice. Not that I'm demanding an explanation for a discount
Edit: Am I being a bit thick. Maybe they have refunded the V.A.T straight away and I will have to pay V.A.T on delivery?0 -

It looks like you chose free shipping.
The €81 is the price including fast DHL shipping to mainland Europe.
Shipping is €10 to mainland Europe and UK via DHL.
Shipping is €21 to Ireland via DHL. (That could be DHL's handling fee in Ireland.)
Because Vat/Duty is paid, you could use (in future) Parcel Motel/Parcel Wizard and pay the extra €3.50 - €4 on top of the €81. You would still save ~ €7 of the cost of shipping direct to Ireland.
Saying that, Sweden Post may be quick enough.0 -

i feel more interest in Nubia Z9 mini, especially its camera performance.
The camera performance is excellent. It has its own nubia camera app with a lot of features like star tracking, motion, electronic etc , no stock crap mtk camera app. Night time shots are probabky the best ive seen in a chinese phone outside of xiaomi and vivo flagships. Focuses super fast and the sensor isn't the same Sony imx214 found in every Chinese phone. Its the one found in an lg flagship. I'm on a third public beta update for 5.1 which has pretty much fixed every little bug that was on the phone and makes the best of the snapdragon 615. I'm waiting for reviews of the bluboo xtouch however! 0 -
