After paying 17 euro for 12 condoms in Tesco (what a rip)

I went searching online

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/thejohnnyshop_Durex-Mixed-Bags_W0QQfsubZ3

This crowd sells 36 for 10 euro including shipping..... 6500 feedback points to .. 99.7% good.

Branded Durex and their from the UK.

Sorry if this makes anyone blush

GreenHorn

Sounds like somebody induling in a bit of 'fake demand' if you ask me...

Bit of a dry patch craichoe??

craichoe

Found this crowd too

LOL @ Greenhorn

Nah .. Seriously though ... condoms are a total rip in this country, they should be free, way too many teenage pregnancy's !

17 euros for 12 condoms is a joke ! Their roughly 4.99 for the same product in Holland and Germany

Wonder what happened with the 0.3%...

Careful with ebay for these...get a lot of expired stock or stuff close to it's expiry date. There are dedicated sites out there for condoms though at much reduced prices than the dickhead irish market....no wonder we have the amount of teen pregnancy we do when they're looking thoise prices for a piece of latex...

masterK

They're probably the limited edition Durex polo variety.

The ebay lot are probably the pen ones

machiavellianme

www.cheapercondoms.co.uk have 100 packs of selected brands for £13.95 including Durex.

Seems the net is the best way, better than waiting around for boots to put on their 2 for 1 dealies...

unklerosco

Paying for sex..... I thought that was illegal.

oldboy

You can get condoms for free on the NHS - all the ebay shops are just people puinting them on.

Been buying them off ebay for last 2 years - no babies or std's yet No breakages and all well within expiry date, even when u buy 50 at a time.

Go for it. The prices over here are a rip off

Try paying for all a childs needs... 17 euro is nothing

dubmick

$5.50 for 12 durex condoms in Australia, that's about €3.35.

They are one of the biggest rip offs in this country.

Ebay has been fine for me, still no children yet

I could pay it , but 17 euro is ALOT of money to some people .. especially if they don't have 17 euro !

Yeah, iirc they was some politican (can't for the life of me think who) who was on the Ray D'arcy show talking about this. Apparently they have a Dail committee looking at this for quite a while though. They've just yet to do anything.

Mellor

Im pretty sure they are available free from clinics, they were at least, all colleges give them free too. freebies aren't hard to find,

Tar.Aldarion

Freebies are usually terrible quality. I've conferred with my penis and he agrees.

well now.. that is not something i would openly admit to. but I feel for ya.

anyway the ones free in college are not terrible quality in the least. if anything they are probably safer than durex on the grounds that they are an inch and a half thick on all sides and so desensitizing you will probably never have to worry..

That figure is directly related to the failure rate of the condoms.

I concur. They're usually "Mates: Inch Thick Willy Chokers" or them "Billyboy" yokes.

Tar.Aldarion

Damn those billyboys.

jArgHA

wtf is it with billyboys? are they made for hobbits or something? they're absolutely tiny

Alter-Ego

They seem to be popular in germany. God knows why though.

Cheers for the link OP, that's me weekend sorted

As someone has pointed out in bulk - raincoats are dirt cheap. It will depend on the store as to what they consider bulk but a few hundred can end up costing very little as in a few pence each - it's up to you to decide if a few hundred is optimistic or realistic before the expiry date!

I assume there is 21.5% vat on condoms?

Thephantomsmask

www.condomman.com is pretty good. I've purchased from them via the amazon.com marketplace where sometimes a product can be cheaper than their main site. I got 100 crown skinless for approx €20 recently with an expiry of 2013, the package was labelled "latex gloves"! The code cman10 gets a 10% discount on their website.
