    Is there customs on top of that too if you get caught? How much would that add? Nice phone. My next phone will definitely have to have finger print recognition. The one thing missing from the su6.

    This is what I get:
    Calculation results

    Edit
    Total customs value (CIF): €142.85
    This is the amount that customs values your import at
    - Duty: €0.00
    - VAT: €32.86
    Total import duty & taxes due: €32.86
    This is the amount that needs to be paid to customs
    Total landed cost: €175.71
    This is the total cost of importing, including product, shipping, insurance and import duty & taxes
    at exchange rate of 1 EUR = 1.12 USD

    What addition is a finger reader?

    You could be lucky but if there are custom charges needed to be paid PM won't accept delivery of it.

    ...and they could send a letter to your PM first (costing you €3.95).

    Is it compatible with Irish 4G? What's the hard drive space on this?

    Smart ultra 6 appears to have better specs for similar money.

    Don't think that comparison is right. It's looking at the v5 lux rather than the v5 pro.

    They seem to be much of a muchness though.

    You will get caught by customs

    I recently bought a phone from china for a little above this price which wasn't charged. The package was marked well below the actual cost of the item, I presume below the level for import duty.

    I bought a oneplus two from China, which was held by customs.

    The package was also marked well below its value, but customs demanded copies of my invoice, and a link to the website matching the price of this invoice.

    23% VAT was added to the purchase plus delivery cost.

    You're never getting one of those through I would have thought. Isn't that all they sell so customs pretty much know what you are getting when one of those packages arrive. Sites like geekbuying have all sorts of stuff you could be getting so they would have to check everyone. Maybe they do check them all normally and I just got lucky as I was quite surprised and obviously delighted it got through.

    I didn't buy it from one plus. I think they have a Euro store so no VAT is added if buying directly from them through their annoying invite system.

    Sorry for going OT. Just factor in 23% to the price, just incase it gets stopped.
    I wish I did :D I wouldn't have bought it!
