    I see what's going on... they've mis-categorised it as a Kid's toy on the Irish site

    It's under Men's accessories on the UK site (where it's £130)

    Why did I just buy this. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 219 ✭✭rgunning


    Many thanks Op, ordered but not entirely optimistic that it will be honoured. Would advise any parents buying for kids to buy a returnable back up prezzie and/or email Joe Duffy in advance to get ahead of the queue.

    Just bought one, fingers crossed!

    Also have free express delivery, which means its 2-3 days, so I'm.hoping they process it tomorrow for delivery Monday!

    Anyone go for shop collection? Might be better chance of getting it honoured!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Ordered too. Hopefully they'll have the stock!!!!

    I was getting unavailable too, hit refresh a few times and just managed to order. Free Express delivery too!

    thanks OP. Fingers crossed they have it now.

    Order it. Then though wtf am I going to do with this. Cancelled.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭reubenreuben


    still available, just checked


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    I've really had to restrain myself from ordering this. I have no use or interest in star wars. Fecking BA is a disaster in my life.

    Ah smart, wait 24 hours to tell us in case we screw it up on you:p
    Thanks though, have one ordered.

    The mobile site is having issues. I had to purchase on the main site.

    Haha! I see why you might think that... but I'm not really a "I've had my fun and that's all that matters" type of person or even that "smart" either. Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered posting about it at all. ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,637 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    Hmm... possible winner of BA of the year 2015 ?



    EDIT: Actually it was probably the "Japan for less than €300 rtn!"


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭racersedge


    Listing now as out of stock... just as I was about to splurge on it just because of that price!
