ebuyer no longer delivering to Ireland

nd · 16-06-2011 12:41pm

Orders seem to go through if you use google checkout.

Will post later if they inform me the order has been cancelled.

Just to let you all know though, I bought something off them a few weeks ago via google checkout and it turned out to be faulty.

They collected it and verified that it was faulty.

THey then informed me they no longer ship to Ireland so refunded me the price of the item, but not the dlievery charge.

Edit : Yeah they cancelled the order this time.

Did they refund everything this time including the shipping charge or had they even got as far as charging you?

I ordered off these guys about 2 years ago. I had awful problems, I rang them up several times, apparently they dont even recongise us as a country, they called us "EIRE" postage is also a bomb.

If i was buying an expensive piece of hardware, i certainly would not the trust in the goodwill of the people in the Belfast sorting office to transfer it to An Post.

OcUK have recently reduced the shipping costs to ROI / Scottish isles. We are now charged the same price as people in Mainland Britain.

If Ebuyer does not want my business then so be it, others do.

Yes they have but my understanding is that if you have a business account and are registered for VAT they still ship here.

No they won't plus you shouldn't buy through their business setup as they won't honer the warranty and only give you 30 days to return items no matter what. I'll never be using them again.

Could you not put bt1 1aa as your postcode and they would post it to belfast and san post would deliver it to you?

That may be so, but it is a moot point now unfortunately. If i buy a card for €350, you can be sure i will not do it in the hope it gets here.

Nearly two years on, there has been an interesting development. I've been buying quite a lot of PC and other stuff from UK suppliers who either don't ship to RoI or charge and arm and leg. I just use Parcel Motel - essentially an accomodation address in Antrim, the gear gets forwarded to my nearest drop-off safe point (look it up, it's quite secure) and all's hunky-dory. A minimal charge of Eu3.50 is applied for this service, so it makes sense on many items.
I'm looking at buying a printer from ebuyer, which brought up this thread.

I always use parcel motel for buying of amazon uk its brillaint really good idea but when i buy of overclockers or Scan dpd 2 days service is what they use scan charges £12 and overclockers is £8 same company service brilliant.parcel motel is really only for small items i feel or has anyone bought something big of amazon uk and what where they charged of parcel motel (NightLine)?

Dan Jaman · 10-01-2014 11:23pm

I've had a couple of reasonably bulky items via PM - power tools in cases, etc and the max size is decent (more accurate details on their site). They're now offering more but I haven't made use of it yet - bigger package sizes and pick-up/drop-off, iirc.

Does Ebuyer still not deliver to the Republic of Ireland?

I'd love to buy from them sometime in the future after seeing this article.

You could get stuff forwarded through the likes of parcelmotel. It would cost a little extra though.

Unfortunately they are wide to Parcel Motel and don't allow that either.

N64 · 20-05-2015 11:02pm

Parcel motel do accept wide items. All that will happen is that instead of picking it up at a motel, you'll pick it up at one of their depots around the country.

If you notice, the 'S' is right next to the 'D'
gadgetman was probably referring to some senders not allowing drop-boxes as a destination address. Whether through desire to account for proper traceability, or being ripped-off; it's their stuff and their rules, much as I don't like it.
For the odd must-have item that won't ship to Parcel Motel / Connect, there is always a relly or pal in England.

I tried ordering today via Parcel Motel and the order was accepted then cancelled, and my account on eBuyer was closed down!

Seems a bit harsh.

Same thing happened to me the last time I tried to order something. When I queried it, I was told I would not be able to reopen my account. Seems extreme but I guess they have their reasons.

taytobreath · 22-06-2015 7:30pm

This just happened to me, just wondering do they give a full refund as Ive heard that they keep the delivery charge to N.I,

If I ordered from flubit would I encounter the same problem
This is whta i was trying to buy http://www.ebuyer.com/658956-lenovo-e50-desktop-pc-90bx0018uk

TerrorFirmer · 22-06-2015 7:35pm

Dabs sell that same PC for €211. Hassle free, delivery is €2. Might be worth considering.

taytobreath · 23-06-2015 6:26pm

Hi,
Unfortunately we are unable to reactivate the account as the billing and shipping address have been related to fraud.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused but let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

got that enote off them this morning, what an absolute sham of a company, people stay away from this crowd

Dan Jaman · 23-06-2015 9:53pm

Hope you point out to them the dropbox number is an essential part of your unique address with PM / PC and nothing to do with anyone else who's using it.
