Get yourself a 3V voucher because you're more than likely under18 and order one online.

good guess.. but how does that matter?

last year i wanted to get a bigger lowepro bag than the one i had, but the shop here in Clonmel didn't have the one i wanted. I sent off an e-mail to the main distributers in Ireland for Lowepro Miniphoto Ltd.
Rather than having me send them money etc. the sales guy knew the local shop and told me that he'd send it to them and all i'd have to do would be to call in and buy it at the same price as on the web site. This worked a treat and they were prompt and helpful.
So if you have a photo shop close by perhaps you could arrange something like this.

http://www.miniphoto.com/ was recommended by people here to me recently. Ordered a new pack from them and had it in two days. Credit card would be handy to have alright, or as suggested, one of those 3V cards. Although I think they charge a fiver for each voucher you buy for the 3V card. If you know somebody who will let you use their credit card give miniphoto a bell.

Oh... more photos of kittens in danger please

Might get a bag from miniphoto for when I head to NY next week or just hold out and get one over there.

I got a couple of bags off these guys. Great service and even with shipping half the price of here.

I got a Mini Trekker from Halls Cameras, not far off O'Connell Street. Not much good for you in Moate I realise, but it was only about €75 where the best I could find online was about €150. Don't know what was up with the price variation, but I didn't complain!

ebay is a LOT better value. The bag I got from miniphoto was twice the price I could've gotten it for on ebay. Unfortunately I needed it in rather a rush and the two day delivery suited at the time.
