    aye, but you will have to pay VAT on the CDs when they arrive into Irish customs.

    It depends what you're ordering basically.
    I was going to order a T.V. remote from them but during the checkout process it said they couldn't deliver it to here.

    I used them for the first time there a few weeks ago (but I'm in Germany at the mo), and the books were with me in a few days, free delivery. Well pleased. Only gonna get books off 'em though.

    Do they include that in the Amazon charge? Because i've never had to pay extra once stuff from Amazon.com arrived in Ireland...

    You don't pay VAT on books full stop.

    from the revenue website (http://www.revenue.ie/faqs/faq_cat5.htm#q6)

    "Packages, other than those containing tobacco or tobacco products, alcoholic products, perfumes or toilet waters with a value of €22 regardless of status (for private or commercial use) are admitted free of customs duty and VAT under the scheme commonly known as "small packages" relief."

    Amazon US only deliver certain items overseas. they list them in the help section along with the postahe costs. AFAIR only books, cds and dvds can be shipped here.
