    I want to buy something off Sony.co.uk as I want to pay in pounds but I want the item delivered to my parents address which is in ROI. I cannot change the country on the address page from UK. I work and live in Belfast but my work place dont allow for personal mail to be delivered to the office and there is no one is in the my house till after 6.

    What should I do?

    Get it sent to where you live. If you won't be home they'll send it to the post office and you can pick it up from there

    All depends on the retailer. Some will, some won't. It's a security risk to ship to an alternate address, so that's why some refuse to do it.

    Probably the best idea to be honest, what did you decide to do?

    What should I do?

    Local coffee shop or other place you spend frequently. - if they know you, it shouldn't be a problem.

    Other option is to find out who they use for delivery and collect at depot.
