    Seems excellent price. Anyone getting one?

    Tab S2 goes on sale in September hence price drops on the Tab S.

    Decent prices none the less.

    Gamestop have confirmed to me that these are refurbs.

    Decent price for new, not a bargain for a refurb.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17 PaddyM7


    Think these are new and not refubs. Bought one yesterday and nothing on it or packaging to indicate its anything other than new. Was just under 280 including cost of game+. Anyone have any idea where I might get a good (cheapish) case for it in a bricks and mortar in Dublin?

    You have to pay for Game+? I registered online free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17 PaddyM7


    'Level 1' of gamestop+ is free and you can register online but you need a 'level 3' membership to get discounts and special offers like on the Galaxy s. That cost 17 quid a year. At least that is what I was told instore.

    I dont think you have to pay that 17e per year. Think its a once of charge. Still a great value.

    I am not 100%.

    Ach I'm not getting in to that!

    Strange I picked up the 10.5 on Saturday from Athlone, using my lvl 1 card no problems. Device was brand new also had a 50 euro gift card so in the end it cost me 270 euros:D

    DID are doing a sale on tablet cases at the moment, you may be lucky and get one for your device.

    Tesco had a 10.1 hard case reduced to around 7 euro in "clearance" section.

    The Tab S is a 10.5'' and is much thinner than the Tab4 10,1.

    its 322 in shop i am in. Cant see 214.99


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 Confused Accountant


    Would anyone that's able to get a 10.5 one for 214.99 be interested in getting one and I'll buy it straight off you? I know it's a long shot but I'm looking for one and don't wanna pay 449 on Argos if I can avoid it. Anyway if someone genuinely wants to do this send me a pm and maybe we can work it out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,340 ✭✭✭dan786


    Checked 2 different stores. 322.49 in both.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 Confused Accountant


    Saw an email as well saying 322 for the 10.5

    No I didnt ask as it was very busy. The price was 429.99 with another sale price sticker under it for 322.49.

    Might try in the morning, but from working in electronics retail myself in the past, they generally go with the price on the product itself rather than the system , if the system has lower price.

    I think Level 3 membership is needed as the store I was in had a sale price and had a Level 3 card right beside it. Basically its a way for them to get you to sign up to their subscription service.

    Let us know if you get it cheap, I might have a friend with level 3 membership that can pick one up for me at that price!

    I have the tab S. It's an amazing device. Few flaws, such as it's a bit slow. It runs a really high resolution but a generation behind processor.

    But if you can handle a slightly slow response at times (I'm still stock, I dont know about mods) it plays media just beautifully. I have a networked drive at home, and I use the tablet as a portable UPnP/DNLA player for it. Works amazingly.

    edit: OP. your title should be 8.4 + 10.5

    And my 8.4 came with a ton of offers I didnt get when I bought other devices! I got 50gb dropbox space, premium evernote and pocket for 6 months or more... All useful things for me, and probably worth what I paid for it alone nearly.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,402 ✭✭✭Tinie


    What price is the 8.4? The other one might be too big for me.

    Id imagine you're a little late to this deal. I tried quite a few gamestops in dublin and they were all out of the 8.4. I think there were very few in stock.

    Thanks OP.Collected the last 10.5 in Athlone. Signed up for basic Loyalty card in shop. Got it at €215. Absolutely delighted to have got it at this price. It's a fantastic piece of kit. OP - loads of good karma goes your way :-)

    You did not need to pay for the card?

    No charge, just went through the process of being a Loyalty Card member. Well worth the saving :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 Confused Accountant


    Just got the last 10.5 in GameStop Ballina. Can confirm its 214.99 with the FREE loyalty card. Just FYI also the girl told me they have iPad airs 128g for only 350 which seems like another great bargain 👍

    100% for 350 euro 128g iPad Air saw it behind the desk. Just have to go into GameStop and sign up for the loyalty card, make sure it's FREE one and you should be able to get it!

    Are you sure they are new ipads and not trade in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,493 ✭✭✭Curb Your Enthusiasm


    Tab S 10.5 for €214.99 in bronze. Absolute steal of a price. Thanks OP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 818 ✭✭✭ronanc1000


    Rang the crescent shopping center. Got told , "we wouldn't sell anything like that" in regard to iPads. Is that not a bit odd considering they sell them on their website lol. Also I got directed toward Argos!!.

    Anyone know any store nearer to limerick that have new ipads in? Thought it was very odd what the crescent told me. Parkway said to try the crescent lol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,340 ✭✭✭dan786


    Had to buy a Loyalty card - Bought to Tab's , one for myself and another for my mother. Bargain even if you have to buy the card. Also was told iPad Air 128GB is 50% at 350e instead of 700e.

    All stores in City Centre are sold out of TAB S 10.5", I got the last one in Liffey Street Lower and last one on Henry St.

    They said they had just one iPad Air 128gb left if I wanted to buy it (in Lower Liffey St). That was an hour ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,748 ✭✭✭Do-more


    Cheers OP & Pasta-solo rang Gamestop in Longford at 9am this morning and the guy there was good enough to put by the last 10.5 they had for me and I got the auld dear to go in and collect it later.

    On the phone he said that I would need to buy the Level 3 card but when I protested and said that a "mate" had got the last one in Athlone yesterday and only had to sign up for the free card, he said he would check it out and sure enough there was no need to pay the extra €17.

    The young lads birthday is coming up in October so he will be delighted with it and saved me a right few bob.

    Henry St had lots pf 8.4 an hour ago. In few different colours. I believe they are 175€ after discount. No Dublin stores have any stock of 10.5" left.
