Get good reviews. I have just ordered them for my nephew for Christmas. :-)

MayoForSam

Great deal OP, I've ordered a pair for the young lad (of course I get to try them out first ).

TerrorFirmer

These actually work surprisingly well, particularly indoors. Great fun as an adult, would be an awesome present for a kid.

crazygeryy

wow that is some price difference.

Trancechick

Thanks OP, I've just ordered a pair for the wee man for Christmas.

psicic

I've ordered one for.... eh... yeah... a kid... that's right... some kid....
no...
wait... ummm....
yeah... MY kid.

Sure, why not. That's normal.

I got these and the paint gets scratched very easily from bushes and foliage.

Is it not jumping up by about .80p for anyone else?
I clicked two for my nephews and it changes in price on the final payment screen

By the way, anyone remember the looney tunes box set someone posted on amazon about 2 months ago, it was in my basket still, gone up to £38 now, that was some deal for those who got it!

Irish VAT adjustment

Also no one got that boxset as it was a misprice.

60 dollars on Toys'R'Us US site so quite likely a (great) misprice!

I doubt it's a misprice as it's been at this price for over a month. I'm sure you'll all get it.

Thanks OP! Bought 3 for the 3 nephews. Christmas sorted.

ifeelstupid

Thanks OP, just ordered couple pairs.....can't believe I've made a start on the Christmas shopping:eek:

vicwatson

I imagine Amazon will honour the price once they are back in stock?

P.o.p.p.y

"Boys" gift?

Please. I am 23 years old and this sounds amazing.

Records onto an SD card? My one-woman neighbourhood watch is about to get a lot more high-tech.

Ceist_Beag

Nice one OP, great spot.

Out of Stock

Didn't know it worked like that. Good to know!!

Frank Black

Despite the OH's dubiousness I've ordered one for our 4 year old son.

He'll be told that he'll have to share it with his Dad, I mean sister.

Skerries

normally the cheap kids ones are rubbish but this is well enthused about it

If you order another item from Amazon and bring your order up to £25 then you will get free shipping. (it doesn't strictly have to be £25, i've put orders through for a little less and still got free shipping)

They will usually send the other item now and then when the goggles are available they will send them to you.

MRTULES

Dam, missed it. seems to be gone now?

2013Lara

Just got an email, estimated delivery date between august 30th and Sep 6th, happy days. Also, seems to be gone back up to £56

Nah, just out of stock on amazon, so you are directed to the next cheapest seller.

Not sure about that. Originally when it was out of stock on Amazon it offered you to purchase (as most of us did) the product and they would let us know when it was back in stock.

Now it isn't appearing for sale by Amazon themselves at all.

FouxDaFaFa

Yeah, I think it's gone completely, at least for the forseeable future. Pity.

question is whether Amazon will honour the orders already placed or whether we will be getting an apology email.

sok2005

Did everyone get expected delivery dates from Amazon? I got mine this morning for end of Aug - start of Sept.

Just coming up as not yet dispatched, though in fairness I only ordered them last night.
"We've received your order but we haven't started preparing it for dispatch yet. The amount of time your order spends in this status can vary based on the availability of the item/s and the selected delivery option."

So, we'll see, I guess

Ceist_Beag

Got an email this morning confirming the first week in September as the new expected delivery date.

August 31st-Sept 9th.

Looks like they are being fulfilled.

jc77

Think I saw something similar in Army surplus store (Midleton) when in for bits to service lawn-mower recently

dozy doctor

I ordered three of them as well, but it states on the confirmation email that

"Estimated arrival date: August 31 2013 - September 09 2013

You have not yet been charged for this item. We do not debit money from your payment card until just before your items are dispatched. We will send you a dispatch confirmation email on the date of dispatch."

So lets see if they honor the price they sold it to us for?

Yippee. That was a great bargain. My delivery estimate has been moved forward to 16th aug - 7th sept. I would say they will be honouring them
