    Deliveries pretty much the same as komplett. I think it was 10 for my video card and i got it in 4 days.

    returns is another story, i'm waiting 2 weeks now for them to tell if my vid card is f***ed or not.

    For a normal MB, the shipping was £14.75.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 621 ✭✭✭TommyGun


    So about 20 Euro.

    Add a few things to the basket, go to the checkout, choose Ireland as the destination and you'll get a shipping quote. I think they've moved to a minimum of 20GBP + VAT but I could be wrong :)

    it's royal mail charges up to about 3 small items.

    after that it's parcelforce which is £22.00 but when they say 48 hours they mean it, unlike other couriers.

    I find their delivery to be very prompt and reasonable enough. Have bought 2 full computers of them and the delivery was in the region of 30 euro..

    I just ordered a few things of overclockers on tuesday and delivery was £12.50 sterling so ~20 euro.

    Have to say though - I ordered at 14:35 and my order was shipped at 16:50 the same day so I was impressed. According to the tracker I should have mein package tomorrow morning.

    I had the same problem with their couriers. Get it delivered to Work.

    Mind you, the postman did the same last week, left an enticing-looking parcel with something nice in it propped on the wall of my open porch, which is constantly haunted by hopeful traveller and Romanian ladies looking for a few quid.

    Nobody took it, mind, but I wasn't best pleased. Wouldn't have minded if he'd hidden it a little and stuck a note in the letterbox.

    As for Overclockers, I haven't dealt with them in a couple of years, but when I last did, they were exceptionally nice, helpful and even enthusiastic with suggestions - indeed, they emailed me to tell me where to get a part that they hadn't got themselves.

    well anytime i'm expecting a package i always make sure someone is there, if not i leave a note saying to drop it into the neighbours or bring it back to the depot.

    although saying that i did have GLS leave a €2k laptop outside my door, they got one angry phone call which got me €30 vouchers :D

    My post man ALWAYS brings the stuff back to the nearest sorting office, I'll prollu leave a note in future so he can drop into the neighbours, much handier
