Just to give my 2c on Amazon.ie - I've ordered a few things now (free Prime because Eir gave it to me). So far the prices have either been more or less the same or, in some cases, cheaper on the Irish site. So if Amazon IE has what I want I'm happy to order there. But I will say that the overall stock does seem much lower than UK. And way more searches have EU stuff. I needed a new keyboard, so this was tricky as loads of options had the ISO layout (annoying but manageable) or EU layouts like AZERTY or QWERTZ which would have been no-gos. Just meant a bit more searching was needed. One other thing I noticed is that the list of filter options is much less on Irish site than UK.

Because I get free Prime on Irish site now, I'll likely use that going forward. If I didn't have free Prime I'd probably not get Prime on either UK or Ireland and just manage when needed (e.g. pay for 1 month's prime if a lot of orders expected).

The fact we have both sites available to us (for now at least) isn't a bad thing. But I do presume they'll shift more to Irish site going forward and wouldn't be surprised if UK Prime Delivery will stop covering Ireland in due course.

After the free month of Prime I was charged €69.90 today for 12 months. Appeared on my card payments as Harpprime Ltd. Took me a while to realise what it was.

In amazon.co.uk they let me refund the 12 month payment and pay monthly. Check the Manage Prime section in your Amazon.ie account page...

Have only run into one issue with Amazon.ie so far: vouchers don't seem to work for me so far. Can't find the printable version and email voucher never arrives. No real issue, Amazon easily cancel and refund, but frustrating that it never arrived.

Might not even have realised if I hadn't sent to my brother and asked what he used it for. Found out then he never received it. It did let me redirect, so tried sending to my own email but it never arrived there either. Checked spam folders too.

I bought a phone and phone case on IE on the 17th, the phone arrived yesterday the case is showing as left courier facility and arriving Monday. I ordered screen protectors and another shock proof case on AliExpress the same day. They are both being delivered tomorrow so an order from China is getting delivered before an Amazon Ireland order. I will be staying with my UK account as long as possible. That's a joke.
