    have they made an announcement about reduced delivery costs?

    Two day shipping to Ireland is now a third of the price. Use to be about 18 quid now only 6.50 base plus 1.50 per KG. No more paying extra to parclemotel for split orders

    Oh that is good news!

    (Note: I have a browser add on that converts sterling to euro, hence the euro prices)
    Standard (3-4 days)

    Music / DVD / Blu-ray / Software / Video Games (excluding consoles) - €5.89 per delivery + €1.51 per kg.
    Books (includes audio books) - €8.77 per delivery + €1.51 per kg.
    Other categories (including Video Games consoles) - €8.77 per delivery + 1.10 per kg.

    For any combination of items from the categories listed above the highest "Per Delivery" rate applies. Add the appropriate "per kg" rate as listed above, rounded to the nearest 0.10kg.

    Two-Day Delivery (2 days)

    All categories - €8.91 per delivery + €2.19 per kg.

    For any combination of items from the categories listed above add together the appropriate "per item" rates. The highest "Per Delivery" rate applies. Add the appropriate "per kg" rate as listed above.

    At those prices you'd be better off opting for 2 day delivery if its available over standard...if you were planning on paying for delivery that is,

    I was wondering are they shipping the items in to Ireland by the container load and then posting them in Ireland. Mine had an An Post label
    I'm pretty sure they are.
    I got two items, one from Scotland, one from England somewhere.
    Both were postmarked Dublin with amazon packaging.
