    Why is the currancy conversion option not appearing for me?

    I use the BT11AA post code ordering a cd but the option to place the order in euros does not appear.

    Because NI uses Sterling.

    Your bank likely offers a better conversion rate than Amazon does anyway. Why are you using that route seeing as Amazon have delivered to Ireland for nearly twenty years?

    You're running a risk of non-delivery, you'll be unable to return the items and you'll have to use your banks currency rates (which actually may be better). You get free delivery here too if the order is over a certain value.

    Sounds like rather a lot of unneeded hassle.

    I`m finding recently (for books) that amazon are really slow delivering to Ireland.

    So I get them delivered to Northern Ireland (using parcel motel), who send them down here. Much quicker in my recent experiences.

    And if you sign up for amazon prime, you can have your stuff the day after you order them.
