    Not on a €10 item. If it was €20, there would be plenty.

    True and keep in mind that the 6.50 is added to the price of the item and if that brings it over the limit you will be charged on that as well.

    does anyone know if boxes of coffee capsules would be accepted by addresspal and if there would be extra import fees?

    I'm literally drinking that right now. I get my capsules from Amazon Germany or Italy. Last time Germany was cheaper, previous time was Italy. You pay delivery but even still you save loads compared to buying them in retailers here.

    can you link to the product page you buy from on .de and .it - I'm not seeing pricing as good as the UK (currently £35 for 256 pods of the Rossa on subscribe and save). I've ordered a box from .uk via addresspal, so we'll see how that works out.

    The prices change all the time which is why I've bought from two different Amazons. It depends on which is cheapest when I need to stock up.

    With Addresspal, your VATable total is approximately €48 as the delivery charge is also liable for VAT once the total hits €22.

    Is it just me finding that returning stuff is now a pain in the ass?

    Two labels to be fixed outside of the package, a returns label and a customs label. My package is small so won't fit. What can I do?

    Put it in a bigger package and attach the labels to it then?

    Its going back to Portlaoise isn't it so need for customs docs?

    No change when i returned something, have had a few returnless refunds too. I wonder if there's more of those now as it may just not be worth the paperwork to process a refund.

    Must depend on the agent. Im retuning an item that ive used, it has the potential to leak a minute amount of liquid and they still told me to return the item. Plus ive no printer, now ive to go find someone that can print off the 50 pages that are needed!!

    I've to return an old Kindle for trade in, has anyone done this. They seem to originally only accept a UK address for a return to sender.
    Has anyone returned a device?

    Once you have an Amazon Prepaid label, then yes.

    Just use the An Post barcode, put the barcode in with the item. The others are not needed for An post, just some other couriers may need them(according to my local post office anyway)

    Was it fulfilled by Amazon, seems strange for you to be posting it back to a UK address unless it was third party.

    It is very random - I often had to post things to UK. And I almost exclusively buy from Amazon directly.

    Mines to be posted back to Portlaoise.
    It was a third party seller fulfilled by Amazon.

    Value of £12 (Machine Polishing Pad). It was deformed so can’t risk it on a card paint work.

    That is odd, have never sent any return to the UK...is always Portaoise. Assume your address is in ROI?
