question on dell

I was doing research on laptops there, and I realised how much cheaper laptops are on dell.co.uk compared to its Irish counterpart. There is about 70 or 80 euro in the difference. Is it possible to buy a laptop off dell.co.uk and it would deliver to Ireland, and you would pay the same price you'd pay if you were living in…

Is it possible to buy a laptop off dell.co.uk and it would deliver to Ireland, and you would pay the same price you'd pay if you were living in England, or would it be a case off "please visit our irish site"?

It's only 70eur...
If it were 150+ then maybe it would be worth the hassle.
But I don't think you can order of the UK website for delivery to Ireland.

You could also try the Dell outlet for cheaper prices. There have been links on Bargain Alerts in the past.

Check the dell laptop thread in 'bargain alerts' for latest deals/discount codes or make request in bargain requests.

In my experience buying a computer from dell is find one as close to the spec as you require. adding on usually costs way more.
