    Damn.... I figured it out...
    When you register with the site you get 6.80 euro off so Basq's tablet was coming up at 48...
    This was coming up as the cheapest, it is black with a better cpu and I bought it for 43.

    Then as a test I tried basq's tablet again and this time it let me apply the code and it came up as 40.50.
    Damn

    I went on to my Focalprice account yesterday to see if the item had been shipped and found the item Unpaid marked in red.

    When I goto process the payment [again], Paypal finds its already paid. I messaged Focalprice and they don't have a record of the transaction on their system but asked for a Unique Transaction ID and a screen shot of the payment.

    They also had no shipping address on record.

    I have since given them the information they asked so waiting on a reply...

    Just check your order on the FocalPrice site - that is all!


    Having the same problems, paid on 19th with Paypal and still showing as unpaid. I'm using Focalprice message system hope to get it sorted.

    I've never had a complaint about them except for long shipping times, but what more could you expect at their prices!

    Incidentally mine came through on the credit card (Paypal) at € 39.02! :D

    I'm still a little unclear on charging - do we think it can be charged via USB or Micro-USB? Are they shipping with UK or EU plug or something random like a US plug?

    Got shipping notice yesterday

    Read it again, that 45 days estimate was to cover the Christmas and New Year delays on this side. Should be delivered in 3-4 weeks.

    Even I won't mind a bit longer time, If I can get the stuff in one piece and at promised date. I don't want to be chasing them every day.

    Think that might do.

    I have the above. Great tablet. Can be gotten for cheaper elsewhere if you want to risk customs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,331 ✭✭✭Guill


    Bought €39.54. Thanks OP, now just to settle in for a long long wait.


  • Registered Users Posts: 459 ✭✭Old_-_School


    I see this one: http://www.focalprice.com/CE0182X/ICOO_D70PROII_7_Android_411_Dual_Core_RK3066_16GHz_Tablet_PC_with.html#.UP6uPfLLLa4
    is $85
    which is about €20 more expensive but compared to the OP's one, it has:
    1. dual core processor instead of single core
    2. 1024x600 display instead of 800x480
    3. 1 GB ram instead of 512GB
    4. 8GB HD instead of 4gb
    5. 3000mAh battery instead of 2000mAh
    6. HDMI output
    7. Supports FLV and MKV video playing

    Yep I liked that one, for extra 20 quid you'll get more speed, more Juice and processing power.

    I googled that one when I saw it and there is a thread on slatedroid about it and a number of people were saying that it drained the battery extremely quickly. (around 90mins IIRC) I think someone opened theirs up and the battery was only 2500mAh rather than 3000.

    I'd suggest doing some more research yourself before purchasing.

    It is saying that for mine as well. Don't know if I am comfortable with sending them a scanned copy of it.

    Anyone have any advice?
