    Silver version
    white version

    which is about €295 and then you can use the Samsung cashback to get it down to €245 or maybe less €235 if you get the Sterling value as it was bought through the .co.uk site

    but I'd advise getting it soon as the price has been going up and down and was £300 yesterday

    I've just purchased one although when I went through to checkout the price came up as £243.95 (£198.33 + VAT 45.62). A difference in UK 20% v IRL 23% VAT rate?:confused: I didn't realise this was an issue in internet purchases.

    Just have to remember to claim the 50 quid back from Samsung now. Has to be made within 15 and 60 days or otherwise deemed invalid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 263 ✭✭lemeister


    Is there any issue with claiming the cashback offer given that it is being bought from a UK company but delivered to Ireland?
    I bought a Samsung TV 3 years ago from a UK retailer and was refused the cashback offer for this reason.

    It's not for all internet purchases, only for the big companies like amazon. If a company sells over a certain amount, not 100% sure but I think it's €50,00 per annum, then the company has to register for VAT in that country. In this case, amazon is VAT registered here and they have to charge the Irish VAT rate to Irish customers.

    Thank you james for the info. I should probably know it already! That makes sense.

    Leimeister, I hope the cashback doesn't become an issue. I've printed and read the T&C and they seem ok but I did read some negative reviews on Amazon relating to failed attempts on same. If the required receipts etc are submitted during the correct time period I don't foresee a problem. I guess we'll find out in due course. I'm not sure as of yet whether I get the €50 as an Irish based customer or £50 having purchased from a UK website. I would have thought £50 but what are the chances of being that lucky!!

    If I don't get the cashback I'll be fairly disappointed as I could have just as easily walked into Harvey Norman and purchased the same item for €309 which is effectively what I've paid for it now (without the cashback).

    There should have been a receipt in the box. If not print out the dispatch email or screenshot your order details from the site.

    No there was only a packing slip.
    Samsung are requesting reciept numbers aren't they, will amazon send me a proper reciept if I request one?

  • Registered Users Posts: 143 ✭✭Twiki

  • Registered Users Posts: 465 ✭✭nulabert


    Back up again. :( The Wifi 10.1 16gig are €228 but not the 3G version.


  • Registered Users Posts: 841 ✭✭✭Journeyman_1

    3g version never was that price afaik.

    The 3G also comes in and out of stock at the £228. Best to keep one of each version in your basket to check for price drops.

    if thats the case then i missed a really good deal, having ordered the wifi only model for £228 yesterday :( still a good deal though, and im not sure i wanted a 3g tablet anyway :)

    Actually I think the 3g was £10 more (£238)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭syboit


    thanks OP, picked up a silver one


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,743 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    Hi Lads
    Do you need to use parcel motel or something? Because when i enter my details, Amazon says it cant ship to my address.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    Jaysus that's more than £100 less than I paid last weekend up north....
    Brilliant tablet though and Jellybean is being rolled out along with samsung premium suite.

    Never mind, I just realised that this is the Galaxy 2 and not the note which I got so that's why it's cheaper.

    The Galaxy tab 2 was about this price in PC world up north, though a little more expensive by about £25 or so.

    John Lewis was selling the 10.1 Galaxy Tab 2 Wifi for £238 two weeks ago....I bought it from there and had it shipped here through Parcel Motel. Same price on the Tesco website but it was a nightmare to place the order.
