Amazon Prime Bargains - Chat Thread

Not too sure, I'm close to the border and can use Oohpod if necessary.

I only checked out of curiosity for price comparison, as I'm interested in a pixel tablet, (which is cheaper on Amazon) and didn't follow through to checkout on Google UK.

At least in the pixel instances, the Amazon prime deals seem genuine.

I had awful trouble trying to get a Eufy doorbell about a year ago. The Eufy UK site doesn't allow you to ship to Ireland, and the Eufy EU site has every other country in Europe listed apart from Ireland 🙄

I queried what the story was and I was told that they couldn't sell to Ireland from the EU site because of the different plug. Eventually I had to use AddressPal or similar and order from the UK and pay the customs charges. Not sure if they've managed to sort it out since, but something to bear in mind if you are thinking of buying from Eufy directly.

Ticking the Prime box normally narrows the results.

Nope.. not for most things anyway. Only some accessories will ship to Ireland.

Currently trying to find the best deal on a particular Eufy robovac. c. €200 off on Prime Day deals but Amazon UK add that back in Customs and can't get the Prime price on Amazon Fr, Sp or GE.

Only viable options seem to be either Amazon UK to an Oohpod up North for a c. €100 saving and a 2 hour round trip to collect or just buy from Harvey Norman for full price but no 2 hour pick up.

Annoying tbh.

Is it an option to collect directly from one of amazon's NI pickup locations near the border and avoid paying for using 3rd party lockers?

Will any amazon site ship the 4k max stick to Ireland?

Checked UK and DE and they only ship in country.

The international versions then are either out of stock, or don't ship internationally (slams forehead off wall) and they are full price!

Thought curry's IE might have matched the price, but no luck there!

Don't know of any other IRL shops that carry it!

I don't think so. I've had to use parcel forwarding services in Germany and Spain previously in order to get them.

Yes, you can get a lot of stuff thats both sold and fulfilled by Amazon delivered to a pick up point in NI which are usually post offices. There are restrictions on the weight and size/bulk of items but you have no issues with customs plus the item or items work out cheaper as you pay 3% less VAT compared to the Irish price. Also you have 17 days to collect.

They don't ship items with subscriptions outside their jurisdictions i heard. Silly reason, hopefully when amazon.ie launches it'll be sorted anyway.

I have CS6 with TOX3 android box. Im not sure exactly what you mean. All depends on the quality of your content. I have 4k HDR IPTV which looks amazing on CS6. Id say fire stick is no different as its spec'd to play the same quality of content. The native CS6 streaming apps produce a stunning picture. I use those for my legit streaming subs. Though I imagine 90%+ of firesticks are for IPTV, kodi etc...

The only reason I can see is if you want to install IPTV or different region apps (e.g. I have a shield tv for IPTV, Max, iPlayer (when it works), stuff like that). If you just use the usual Irish based apps (Disney, Netflix, Apple, Prime, etc) then there's no real need.

£159 for dual air fryer but jumps to £190 because of import fees. Haven't seen that in a while on Amazon, thought it was gone. Good deal if you can get it for 159

Saw this earlier.

I recently installed a deco system from TP-Link and it's the best one out of many systems that I've tried. Although the link at the end is not the one I use, I would recommend them.

Asus WIFI6 AX5400

167 pounds a bit above your budget and 2 piece, but I find the have excellent range and I've never had an issue with them. I use the wifi back channel also without issue.

Has anybody experience with Delivery by Amazon?

I order efuy camera to my aunt's house who was looking for them but they are away on holiday, just wondering do they leave a slip to collect from somewhere? offer a "leave in safe place" option or anything?

My amazon prime stuff comes with an post but must depend on the area.

Nearly all Amazon deliveries for me are just left at the front door if it's Amazon themselves delivering. No knock or anything. They left a parcel next door a while back at the front door and they were away for weeks, if we hadn't spotted it it would have been left there getting soaked in the rain).

You will get a notification when delivered and usually if it's not delivered to somebody they take a photo ot show you where it is.

They are a fine system for the price, great for notifications - there is a subscription for the cloud recording. I have them and Reolink up and the blink notifications are better.

I ordered a SmartSleep alarm clock last week and the Amazon delivery driver needed a code that I had received by email to deliver it. Had never had that happen before.
