    I've had problems getting electronic stuff sent from Amazon before.

    I have never had any issues other than a TV being smashed in transport (but that is in a different league and was simply replaced) If they don't deliver something to Ireland, use Parcelmotel.

    What issues did you encounter with them ?

    Use Parcel Motel/Parcel Wizard/Address Pal to get Amazon to ship to a UK address. Amazon have free UK shipping on orders over £20 so it works out cheaper than selecting shipping to Ireland

    Bought it on Amazon, they didn't seem to have trouble with it this time. Surprisingly it had a problem with the Arduino CASE that I wanted to buy with it.

    I push it a bit further next time and see if they will ship me two sacks of amonium nitrate and the timing mechanism from an old VCR.

    Ordered on the Friday, dispatched on the Monday, and somehow arrived here on the Tuesday.. Very impressive service. I don't remember my other Amazon stuff having arrived this quickly, maybe the aircraft bringing the package got a good tailwind.
