Amazon Prime Bargains - Chat Thread

Which is better, this used previous gen paperwhite kindle or the new basic kindle?

Thanks, assuming these are ones traded in to avail of their upgrade offer? If so, some could be pretty used.

Currently unavailable, shame looking for one.

To write back on the projector for 50 euro from No chat thread..

Deal: Mini Projector, ClokoWe WiFi Projector with Projection Screen 1080P Full HD, 9000 Lux Portable Video Projector Compatible with Smartphone TV Stick PS5 HDMI USB, Multimedia Home Movie Theater Projector https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09WV3HQW5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_dl_G2KDXY2ZWAND9YDJTKS7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I’m actually very pleased with this for 50 euro!! We have it set up in a shed, great for Sports and movies running off phone connection over USB, haven’t tried a Roku or Fire Stick yet . But bit of a buzz , not amazing quality and the fan is quite loud, but very pleased with it for 50eur!

Sorry, forgot to update

Wasn't too pushed on the screen so projected directly to the wall.

Set up was easy, picture was great, streaming from my firestick with no problems. In saying that, I don't think it's up to much outdoors unless it's a dark evening

Fan was quite loud but acceptable once I got used to it.

Sound was fine but I ended up using my echo dot as a Bluetooth speaker.

All in all, very happy with it, totally worth just under E70.

The kids loved watching Pixar movies on it.

Worth the money for occasional use

this was the email they sent regards brexit and shipping to Ireland

VAT & Duties Calculation

-----------------------------------

When shopping on Amazon.co.uk, all prices are shown inclusive of UK VAT before checkout but this is removed and updated with any Irish VAT and / or duties that are due when you proceed to checkout and select an Irish delivery address. Here are some common examples:

On orders less than €150 dispatched from Amazon UK (Irish VAT due):

- The price you see before checkout is inclusive of UK VAT, at the appropriate rate (e.g. 20%).

- UK VAT is removed at checkout and you will instead see Irish VAT applied (e.g. 23%) once an Irish delivery address is selected.

- E.g. a cable with a price of €15.18 (including UK VAT), changes to €15.55 at checkout (€12.65 with UK VAT removed + €2.90 Irish VAT added).

On orders more than €150 dispatched from Amazon UK (custom duties and taxes where applicable):

- The price you see before checkout is inclusive of UK VAT (e.g. 20%).

- UK VAT is removed at checkout and once an Irish delivery address is selected

you will instead see 1) an item price which excludes VAT, and 2) an Import Fee Deposit which includes Irish VAT (23%), and any applicable duties (for some products no duties are applied).

- E.g. a ladies coat with a price of €200.92 (including UK VAT) changes to €230.65 at checkout (UK VAT is removed and replaced with Irish VAT and duties, which in this example would be €167.43 ex-VAT price + €63.22 Import Fee Deposit and Irish VAT).

On orders dispatched from Marketplace Sellers:

- The price of items which are dispatched from our Marketplace Sellers are inclusive of any applicable VAT and duties, and no further payment will be due. If for any reason you are charged additional costs (e.g., by customs authorities), in addition to the purchase price and delivery, you can contact the Seller to request a refund of these costs.

- Should the Seller not reply or resolve the issue for you, you are eligible to file an A-to-Z Guarantee claim with us to request a refund.

- For more information about our A-to-Z Guarantee, please visit https://amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GQ37ZCNECJKTFYQV

:(

Used it once and they had sent the items back when i arrived.

One arrived on Monday, the next on Wednesday. I went up on Thursday and both were gone back.

If you could specify that everything be in the same box i think it might work.

My mistake was not ringing before i went up.

You must have been using the Amazon locker where items are held for up to 3 days. See this

However if you use click and collect the items are held for up to 18 days. I use it a few times every year.

How do you choose to use the 18 day option?

I dont remember getting a choice. Only used it for the two orders though.
