They are just purchased on a .net site which says it ships from a factory within the EU. Need a UK vat number if using UK supplier.

That's interesting. I thought Blue Insurance were the underwriters for gadget insurance, and they won't insure anything that wasn't bought new in the UK, Ireland or US. Ever had to make a claim? :P

Yep, claimed two years ago for a smashed screen and got a brand new OPO as replacement

Price seems to have gone up, I'm still only paying €4.99 including loss
