ASOS were at the same thing but you could choose to buy in GBP and save a fortune. They've since put a stop to that.

It's €71 including Irish VAT.
Do you expect retailers to drop or increase Irish prices daily, weekly depending on UK to Euro exchange rates?
What a fair margin to you?

You pay your money you make your choice, I don't like being ripped off any more than anyone else so I make the choices around who gets my money accordingly.
