    I know generally, not much discounts come up on Apple products, but they do appear if you are quick.

    I thought this would be a good place to post any offer you see for this event. I know a few people waiting to buy incase any offers pop up, whether they are with Apple direct, DID, Power City, online etc

    What would you normally get in an Apple Store?

    Is it a voucher? Any idea how much if I were to buy XR?

    A couple of years ago, there’s was decent discounts.
    Last few years, full price but you then got an Apple store voucher.

    They are consistently €140 in most of the tech shops in around Moore street, Liffey street beside CEX and similar shops.

    Genuine sealed items. I got mine from a similar seller a month or 2 ago.
    Make sure they are on adverts first, that way you can get a feeling for them.

    I suppose its just a term nowadays as most discounts start weeks before Black Friday too.

    Id say the same price, but you may get an Apple Store Voucher.
    Id wait and see, possibly buy the iPad, then use the store voucher to put towards the pencil.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,353 ✭✭✭Shn99


    Compub have partnered with TodayFM to give away an iPhone 6s, mentions of a big sale too

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,437 ✭✭✭biggebruv

    They pop up for 140 brand new on adverts from some side street tech shops.
    Second hand for less obviously and once cleaned out properly, I’d have no problem buying second hand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,499 ✭✭✭IamMetaldave


    I'm with Whiterebel... For the sake of a few quid.. gimme the fresh clean ones..

    Looking to get IPad 32gb 9.7 2018 for the wife.

    It's on E Global Central for €305 this week but I'm wary of that site.

    I wonder if Apple Sales event will offer a good deal this week.

    With good reason, I'd say.
    HUKD has some scary stories of poor experience with them. Not worth the risk this close to xmas, IMO.

    I had never heard of it but there was a thread here before about it and there were plenty of positive people about it as well.

    What are people's thoughts on buying Iphones from eBay. Never done it before but tempted looking at this refurbished 8 plus. Seller seems to be legit but i'm always skeptical on eBay

    Would be somewhat nervous. It's probably fine - but "light signs of use" could mean anything in reality.

    This one on Adverts seems decent:

    Will apples reductions be on top of these reductions or are they all the one?

    Some of them are pretty good reductions so its hard to see Apple doing any better but waiting until Friday is the only way you will know.
