    Posted in another section, but was recommended here...



    So I had a very financial darwin sort of episode last night frown.gif


    Dell were doing some nice laptops on offer (expiring last night) so I ordered. I ordered through the UK site because it was so much cheaper (sorry Irish government tongue.gif, but im not paying £xxx more. Anyway, they only did delivery to the UK, and whilst I do have a relative or two, I decided to be a cheap bastard and try and get it sent to Ireland, considering that they come from Poland anyway...



    So I wrote my entire Irish address on teh delivery form and used that postcode that floats around here (that belfast one).


    This morning I woke up rightfully panicking. What can I do?

    Not having tried that myself but I'd guess that your order will be cancelled by Dell due to asking for Delivery to Ireland instead of UK.

    I tried the Belfast post code and it worked fine. I'd imagine you'll get your laptop.
