Balls. I meant to order last yesterday and didn't. I thought they would've said an end date. €3.99 isn't too bad.
I just threw in a couple of T-shirts to see what the delivery was, and i got this
€3.99 delivery and €2 for something else?
Thats weird, where the 2 euro come out of I wonder0 -

shoes I ordered are pretty nice, but too tight
reviews said order a size higher so I assumed that meant 9.5 instead of 9. it actually meant 10
i assume I'm on the hook for shipping and whatnot if I want to return them? .. hardly seems worth it
--edit
actually, with a thinner pair of socks they're a decent enough fit. still a bit tight but no pain and nice to walk around in0 -

I normally take a 9.5 and ordered a 10 in those Donnay and they fit perfect, that's why i was saying to order the next size up0 -
Got my delivery today,the delivery guy was relieved when I told him the price was gone to €3.99.He said they call it crazy Tuesday in DHL as everyone orders from Sports Direct over the weekend and the orders hit Ireland then.
Even with the €3.99 delivery,ordering a bundle of items is still great value.A 10% code would cover delivery anyway.
I have an order due in work today.
On the €3.99 thing. Won't put my off. Even if they cop the £ -> € cock up they'll still be pretty hard to beat on price.0 -

Why does everybody think it wasn't deliberately priced at 1e

I'd say the euro is the currency they're focusing on, and the pound is the (If any) cock-up. (They never brought it down in ratio with the euro)
They are very big in France and Germany, ergo Belgium/Austria/Switzerland.
This article from just over 2 years ago. They have been buying Currency Contracts, so i'd imagine they keep a close eye on it.But most of Sport Direct’s profit boost came from favourable currency contracts, which are used to manage some of the impact of currency movements....
...“Plans are in place to expand our International Retail operations into all 17 countries that have adopted the Euro within five years," Sports Direct said in a statement on Thursday morning.
And from this yearThe company said that sales rose by 14.3pc to £317.4m while gross profits rose 22.7pc to £129m in the nine weeks to March 31...
.... Around 2,000 permanent Sports Direct employees who have been with the business since 2009 will financially benefit from the performance. Mr Ashley has put in place a generous share bonus scheme for employees that is based on Sports Direct hitting profit targets.
Those targets have been met, meaning the eligible employees will collect 75pc of their base salary in Sports Direct shares in August.
However, the surge in the company’s share price in the last year mean that an average employee earning £20,000 will collect 12,000 shares worth more than £50,000.
Nice for all the employees.. 0 -

When they see the drop in orders it might just drop to €1 again!
