There's a good chance you'll get caught for tax when it arrives here. You'll be looking at around €50 VAT + their administration charge.

Being sent by snail mail, not DHL/Fedex.

Having been caught before, I generally avoid buying anything online which is being delivered by these couriers.

An Post do a lot of catching too I'm afraid.
Using DHL, etc., you're definitely gonna pay. But An Post nab quite a few too.

Ireland €305, UK Argos £195. !!!:mad::eek:

ash2020

yeah, i have reserved 1 up north soon as i seen this thread, 195 price is excelent value., however i get the feeling the uk reviews are made up by argos staff members as apposed to the public.

ash2020

this is a great deal, reserved the sony SR38 70GIG camcorder in enniskillen and when i payed and collected I was given the SR77 80GIG version as a substitute.

Extra hard disk space and 5.1ch surround sound. got it for £195 instead of the price advertised : )here

Argos down here wanted 317euro here
