    Went and ordered it from Amazon thinking it was £32. However, they add VAT at the very end which brings it up to £39 (€44). This is the same price as Tesco are selling for so went and cancelled the order

    It changed the VAT rate for me too but this only changed it to £33.81 not £39. Strange that happened to you....I ordered it on Tuesday (10th Nov) though.

    Amazon offer free delivery on orders over £25. You must select it at the very last stage of ordering.

    You're right. Just re-ordered and selected Free Super Saver delivery. It was auto set to Standard which they charge for. Thanks a mil. Order now is :-

    Amazon is registered for VAT in Ireland so they charge the difference between UK VAT (15%) and Irish VAT (21.5%). So the price for CoD: MW2 goes to £33.81 but you can’t be caught for customs and the full 21.5% goes to the Irish exchequer. Also, Amazon delivery times for most items is very good, only about 3 days from ordering cause I think they have a distribution centre here (not 100% on this). Free delivery over £25 as well. So good deals and helps the Irish economy!!

    There's a few retailers could learn from that approach......


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,268 ✭✭✭MayoForSam


    +1 for Amazon from me too, ordered on Monday, sent Tuesday, arrived today, free shipping.

    £33.81 - I was charged €37.55 on my card which is a very good deal in my opinion and saved me a lot of traipsing around the shops.

    OK, so I only just got the game but it sounds like it will be worth the wait.

    Hey Tesco Bettystown still has 360 and PS3 for €44.95

    Cheers

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,622 ✭✭✭Kevin!


    Ordered mine off Amazon the day before it was released, was shipped on the release date and I received it today, very happy with the service and the pricing


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,923 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Slightly off topic but from reading some of the posts here it seems that Coolshop deliver to here. Whats the standard shipping rate/charge for a PC game for example?
