Sendit, thehut and Currys are all free delivery in the U.K. not Ireland. All you ones you mentioned that are the cheapest use the U.K. 15% VAT and not Irish 21.5%.

Best place now is the buy in the U.K. due to the sterling conversion, it takes time for it to filter down to Irish companies for our buy price to reflect savings. You have to take what comes with buying from the U.K. though but for most the price saving makes it worth it.

You think?

Oh and Merry Christmas all.

Yeah just in both PC World and Currys. Both €399 for the NC10. Internet now for me :pac:

That's a joke.

Up north for me!

Mine is working straight out of the box on my Buffalo Wireless Router, accepted key fine. Am guessing it might be a problem with your router.

just update in case anyone else experiences same

problem was with mac address control in wifi settings on the belkin router

had to disable it then instant connection and copied the mac address and pasted into allow list and reenabled mac address control

Shipments don't start till the 2nd, so we are taking an extra day off which is not a "hell of a break" extra considering most of us have not had a day off the whole year.

Tell that to your competitors. I'm sure they'll be understanding and refuse custom.

Nah. They'll probably just take the orders and ship them next week anyway. Look what the Hut did on the earlier pages on this thread. Took piles of orders and didn't ship for weeks.

What's with the indignation anyway. Tis the season and all that. If you want sales go down to the shops and pay more. If you want cheaper buy it online and wait for delivery.

If you go to www.elara.ie in red on the top of the page it says they're out of the office till 5th Jan.

Fair enough,I dont know how much time you get off but just from my perception of your website is that its a big company which would at least be able to have people in over the holidays instead of the whole company shutting down,i must be wrong then,my apologies

LightningBolt

He or she has already said shipping co. doesn't start back up to Fri 2nd. What's the point in bringing people in before that if you can't send off deliverys:rolleyes:

Elara: Kin

Deliveries don't come in till the 2nd and shipments won't be with customers till 5th at the earliest. The only difference now is customer will start getting deliveries from the 6th. You will be suprised how many online companies are shut as well, we just tell you about it.

mickoneill30 is correct, other online companies as well as us are still taking orders as usual and you will recieve your goods when deliveries start up again, only difference is you can't call us.

Which was exactly my point. Coming out and saying it acts like a red herring - people will go elsewhere for better or worse.

For the consumer it's more information, but in the same sese it also gives an unfair picture of the layout of other sites.

Looks like thehut have an extra £5 off as a promo, cost including delivery to
Ireland is now down to £310.93 - which should equate to €325-330.

Cheapest I can see anywhere else is dabs.ie at €349+delivery.

Looks like thehut.com and paying in GBP is still the best price on these.

Is it worth saving €20 when you know just how shambolic their shipping is?
