    Hi,
    I'm looking for a cheap reliable place to get USB Pen Drives, what size depends on what offers are available. Unless Ebay is much better (buy it now) value including shipping, I'd prefer to get it somewhere a bit more conveniant. Even if I can get it in Dublin?

    Any feedback appreciated, thanks:)

    On the peats site it says 2gb is cheaper than the 1gb! is this inc p&p?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie


    Interesting but does:

    DISMX00022R 2GB 2-3 days €57.02

    not seem a bit toooo cheap? €57 for a 2GB one is a great deal, does it mean the quality of the device is bad though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,225 ✭✭✭wba88


    dunno. but at that price i want one!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie


    Hehe... I'm sure the order would be cancelled?

    You can get a Viking USB 2.0 Pen Drive 256MB for £13.67 at Amazon.

    Don't waste ur money lads........It's a bleedin' micro drive. It's not solid state. If it's an IBM designed drive, don't put anything you don't want to lose on it:-(
    If you're looking for a 2GB pen drive(solid state) try..........

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8714649224&fromMakeTrack=true

    Cheapest on Komplette is 119 bucks + postage

    Thanks for the link boss, I've send the seller a question asking can he deliver to Ireland:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 96 ✭✭foggers


    reply from ebay seller...........

    i have already shipped one out to Belfast and that didnt cost me any more
    so if you order one i will take the risk and cover the postage myself if it is any different
    hope this help
    thanks
    richard

    That's £43 for the drive and £5 for shipping.

    £48 = €73, that's deadly by any standards

    u could use it with this...........

    Hehe, did you ask him the same message because I just got an email saying the same thing, but not the part about him risking it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie

    Is he in uk?
    if so, itll cost him more to send it, if i send from england to the north its cheaper than the south, however if he sends it with same cost it'll probably get to you, but after 2-3 months


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie


    He said he will take the risk... it's only a little envelope sized package though so surely he's covering his ass when he asks for £5 to post to UK/NI anyway? It would fit in one of them padded envelopes/through letterbox and they only cost about €1 to post within Ireland, maybe €2 to uk so I'd say he'll be fine... I could be wrong, 2/3 months?? eek:
