It doesn't give any information on this only the banner announcing it. I guess time will tell.

Kimbot

I had a quick look through it and it is terrible. Lots of stuff has been on sale in cdwow etc for half the price it is in this "sale" and the book section of the sale doesn't even open.

fifib

book section opens for me

mcgovern

I can get as far as the page with the choice between books and audiobooks, but clicking on books gives me a blank page

"Boards.ie moderator in teen porn collection shocker!"

qwertplaywert

why dont they sell stuff like porn and electrical outside uk?was reading bout it on another boards but no reason given...........

darrenw5094

I tried to buy a dvd from play.com today.....
Now they do not deliver at all outside the UK.

Then i tried music cd's....and that was the same!!
The site is now totally useless to us....unless something changes soon.

Must be the Irish government customs putting pressure on them.
To hell with the Irish comsumer who is trying to save a few quid....make sure the big coperations are ripping us off for every cent we have.

Anyone any ideas??????????????:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

kensutz

Change it to euro and not sterling :rolleyes: problem solved

Are you trying to order using Sterling? If so, change over to Euro.

From what I can see, there is no play.com sale, everything is priced exactly the same from what I can see.

darrenw5094

Strange that the sale starts before xmas.

Some things are cheap, but overall not to many.
I hope this is not the January sale.

Yes, I changed over to Euro and bought 'Saints and Soldiers' for €7.49
Hope this is decent because I like the war movie ever since 'Saving Private Ryan'.

Probaby not in the same class.
Anyway, thanks for the help and replies.

Darren.
