    I'm looking to buy a spare charger for my 4s and maybe a car charger.

    Anyone know any reliable cheap places online? Apple are €30

    Also would any of you know where I can get a set of the new Apple ear pods?

    Never had any bother with the ones from either €2 shops or Dealz for that matter, only €1.49 in there.

    Car chargers? Do they sell any three pin wall chargers?

    There seems to be some nice cheap Apple one on ebay.ie but I'm half afraid of getting some dodgy knock off.

    Do these seem ok? Charger & Car Charger

    You can be unlucky, but in most cases, you should be fine. The 3-pin is a Dublin seller too.

    Monoprice are cheap but fantastic quality. I've found them to be at least as resilient as Apple branded chargers/cables.

    buy from apple, only way to ensure you're getting a charger that won't **** up your phone.

    Unfortunately I can back this up with past experiences with an iPhone(which was insured) and two iPods which was not. I don't have the technical reason as too why but an educated guess would be that the current/voltage on the 3rd party vendors can be slightly higher and once it goes so far above the line the device is fried

    Yeah thanks guys I've been thinking a bit about that, knowing my luck I'd come in to a melted phone.

    Better be safer and buy from Apple. I'd rather pay the €30.
