Is the vision worth the extra 30?

Just thinking the same myself...

Got a review, looks very good:
http://reviews.cnet.com/mp3-players/creative-zen-vision-m/4505-6490_7-31632697.html

and the price looks great...about €280 elsewhere
http://www.elara.ie/products/detailsfull.asp?productcode=ECE1239461

So, anyone buy from this site before?

Looks like a good deal even with the €20 delivery charge
The same product on the .co.uk version of the site is £198.28 that roughly €295

238 + 12ish deliv == 250ish

http://www2.hardwareversand.de/7Vnnl3sP9jsUUQ/1/articledetail.jsp?aid=6284&agid=817
178 + 30ish deliv = 210ish
(popular hardware site for techies here)

so ultimately 200delivered is a verry good price

These were retailing for around €280 euro up until early this year.
The won several awards at CES in 2006. The play most video codecs
you throw at them and are much better than the Ipod video for
connecting up and playback via a TV.

At this price they are a steal... as they are €289 on Creative

If you search for 'zen' €179.99 and €149.99 appear and it shows the same product for each price. Is it supposed to be 2 different products?
Even @ €179.99 its a good deal, €149.99 is a savage price.

On the site they have the Vision: M for €179.99 and the Vision for €149.99 so some people are getting confused.
Same player people, seriously tempted myself, just have an old Creative Zen Touch atm..

If you search for "Creative" on the site and click on the black
30 GB model it'll bring you to a page detailing the Zen, at the botom
of this page you can select either white or black. Both colours are
€149+postage.

Hmmm, still nobody's answered the all important question: are these guys ok to buy from? Will my hard-earned €150 just vanish and go towards buying a yacht for whoever set up the professional-looking website?

Never bought from them myself, but my mate in the UK has bought several phones from them over the last couple of years, he's never had any probs nor shipping delays from them. As such, he hasn't had to use their customer service so can't comment on it, but I believe they're quite a well known website in the UK.

I just ordered a creative zen vision m (€149.99) from them on Friday. I contacted them before placing the order to see what the difference was between the two players listed. There no difference just a mistake on the site. Delivery is suppost to be today, still waiting!! A mate ordered his on Friday aswell. Still no sign of his either. Will report back once it arrives.

I said I would report back about this.

Package was never delivered either was my mates. According to the online delivery tacking his seems to be on the same delivery van. Got a phone call from onedaymobile who said they would contact parceline and let me know in the morning what the situation is with the delivery. At €20 for delivery parcelines service should be better than this.

Will report back tomorrow if I receive it or not.

I hope they get black back into stock as my bro is looking to purchase one aswell.

I ordered the black VisionM last night. I had to go through the Mastercard SecureCode procedure also.

Today though, I got a call from onedaymobile, and I was asked to fax a form of ID to prove that I was the rightful owner of the CC. I thought it strange considering I had to endure the Securecode part, though I obliged.

I was told I'd be sent an email with tracking number, though I've yet to receive it.

Balls! i paid €250 for my zen last month!
it's a great piece of kit though. When ye get them dont take off the plastic cover from the screen, it scratches easily.

that will come off after a couple of weeks - order a skin from best skins ever and that'll protect the screen and the touchpad/buttons.

check www.epizenter.net for tips and instructions

it's a great player and this is a terrific price - I paid €300 for mine this time last year.
