    I literally just bought the PS4 with a free copy of Fifa 2016 at lunchtime for €350.

    I've reserved one of the PS4's with Uncharted for €300 a few minutes ago but I'm now wondering if I'm better off sticking with my original order as, despite the price difference, it's a Christmas present for our eldest who's only 10 and Uncharted seems to be rated for older gamers?

    You can get PS4 + Uncharted + FIFA 16 for €300 @ Argos

    Brilliant, have reserved that now so will go exchange the 350 console for a 300 one with an extra game. Madness!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,315 ✭✭✭dan786


    All console deals live now on the site.

    I actually went in today and finished off the Christmas shopping, was petrified I'd see some/all the stuff on her at a fraction of the price. Nothing on there that would make me worry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,681 ✭✭✭ColeTrain


    I've reserved the T20 Coffee Machine and the Fire 7 tablet. €100, for a coffee machine and tablet? That sounds okay to me, even though they're hardly going to be top of the line. I'll report back on the quality.

    EDIT: From reading a couple of reviews of the T20, it seems you can only use T-discs? As a coffee machine noobb I presumed you could use loose coffee? **** that. I'll just go with the cheap tablet and stick with my cafetiere!!

    Fifa 16 is €29,99 but there doesn't seem to be any stock. It's available to order for collection on Monday - would I be charged normal price then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    Read any argos thread. Ever.


    They may let you have it for the reserved price. But they really don't have to. Its up to them, seeing as its black Friday, I doubt they'd honour it. But that's my own opinion.

    If you're arsed you could buy the uncharted bundle, trade the game in for €31 and buy Fifa 16 for €19.99 (you should have got a €10 gift card with the console). PS4 with Fifa 16 for €289.

    Is the Amazon Fire 7 Tablet worth the €50?

    I have been thinking of picking up a tablet for bus journeys and general use.

    Is this a bargain at €50?

    Depends, is it the latest gen model available directly from Amazon for £35 with free delivery to Ireland (the same price) or an older model?

    It's certainly worth the $34.99 (€33) and free shipping for 1c more that Amazon.com are giving it for in the US of A :mad:

    Prices quoted on Amazon.com are not inclusive of sales tax so you can easily add an extra 15-20℅ depending on the state it gets shipped to

    I bought it. Its a basic model but I think its a decent price for what I needed (surfing, some videos/streaming).

    I don't know the requirements of Minecraft, did you look up what they recommend?

    Ones I spotted were the Rock Band 4 full band in a box set and game and guitar set, 100 and 50 euro off respectively. Heard mixed things about the game though.

    I got the last Toshiba laptop in Blanch.
    Reserved last night at full price, then paid only 279 just now. Very handy.


    They had all of the black Friday products lined up behind the counter. Well only a handful of them left at this stage.

    Should be ok for basic web browsing etc, there is another Toshiba model ending with d-120 and at least half were returned as they just wouldn't work at all.

    Just tried to order a copy of Until Dawn (currently out of stock) for collection. I got an email with no product info or reservation number. And I got no text. I take it the reservation hasn't worked properly in that case?

    The gopro wasn't showing at 7 this evening but was at 10.30 ish, assume it's when stock system restocks reserves or new stock arriving.

    Was told by someone who works for Argos in theUK that 40% of products reserved aren't collected........complete bummer for the company and for people who might be trying to order.

    They really should have an option to cancel the reservation in the email they send.

    Cheers for that. Had one ordered on Amazon since Wednesday for £81.99 which works out near €120. Still hadn't been dispatched by this afternoon so after reserving one in Argos Swords, I cancelled my Amazon order. :)

    I think it's relative!

    Ok to me is drinkable, depends on your criteria!

    On a scale of 1 to 10, it's a 4....

    As I said.... Depends on the individual, and how can drinkable not equate to ok??

    Mine was a Christmas present from the husband we're crap at presents though have it opened already! Bit smaller then I thought but nevertheless really like the paperwhite display and the X-ray function that tells you about each character. Hopefully it won't be a dust collector.

    Dont think thats true because it lets you reserve it now so it cant be sold to anybody else tomorrow except your res. no. which has the deal price on it

    If you reserve a product and the price changes (due to normal fluctuations e.g. goods going into or coming out of promotion) before you collect the item, you may request to pay the lowest of i) the price on reservation or ii) the prevailing price in store at the time of collection. This will also apply if your reservation is extended but not if the reservation collection window has expired.
