    When I get to the checkout page theres an "etail services" delivery charge of 10 euro that I can't click off.

    It's still advertised as free delivery on the site so I'm a bit confused.

    edit-never mind,Went to the confirm page and everythings in order.Wins.

    Yup, I have done that, hopefully they'll fix it, as Paypal still states the transaction is pending.

    Mine is sorted now, got an email earlier today from them and it was passed on to the right people to cancel it.

    I think I know what caused it. Any chance you paid with your paypal balance instead of a card and the balance of your account was in euro/dollar instead of pound? I gave in and ordered the Irish jersey there, but I decided to convert my balance from dollar to pound and it worked fine. Got my confirmation email from sportsdirect right away :)

    There might've been some funds in the PP account, which is always Euro. Not enough to pay it all tho, rest would've come from the Credit card.

    I didn't get an email from them, maybe tomorrow.

    Got the home Irish jersey there for 40 euros after the 10% off and free delivery. You won't find it cheaper elsewhere, it's a very good price compared to the shops here.

    Good Bargain! :)

    I just went to the FAI Shop for sizes. I went for a 40' chest which is a medium. Link below to help you out.

    Elverys, SportsWorld etc need to take a long look at themselves. Soon the whole country will be using sports direct

    is sports world the place attached to heatons? I'd be willing to put money that they are involved together somehow, they sell the same brands (lots of dunlop and lonsdale), their own branding is not unsimilar either.

    Elverys still serves its purpose, where else am i going to try on runners that i later buy on sports direct!?

    If the price was comparable, even a little cheaper i would definitely buy off the local place but most of the time it isnt even close. I bought astro runners recently, they were £27 on sportsdirect, €65 in elverys.

    Snap. I just ordered off sports direct new astro shoes that cost me €33 delivered (and hopefully a free mug :pac:) when they were €47 in lifestyle.

    How long does delivery normally take from them? My tracking no has been at "Shipment information received" since sat.

    Typically about 3 working days so around Wednesday.

    'Sports World' in Heatons is Sports Direct, handy if you want to check out the quality of the brands before buying online. Sports Direct are large shareholders in Heatons.

    Did you change the pricing into euro? I did that before and got no option for paypal until I changed the currency back into GBP.

    Got an email today saying
    Thank you for your e-mail.

    The transaction below has now been cancelled.

    I don't know if they meant the Paypal transaction or the order itself. It still says Order Status: Received on the SD website.

    I guess I won't know until Friday, when LFC's new jersey is released, and the reason the rest of my order is on a delay.

    Do they email you when items have been despatched?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,195 ✭✭✭maximoose


    Yeah you get an email saying order passed to the courier
