    Why not just hire a van and go over buy and deliver them yourself. I doubt it would work out any cheaper buying them abroad and getting them delivered as the delivery cost alone would be huge. Even if you hired a big van or a lorry and done it yourself it still might not work out cheaper so best to just suck it up and buy them here in good old rip off Ireland lol.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Also consider any faults or repairs under warranty.

    What would it cost for van hire, fuel, meals, hotel, the boat ? Plus a week off work.

    A Samsung fridge of that price range is going to need warranty work (based on people I know who have them) which won't be covered, so you'll have a 1500 + hundreds of euro of shipping giant doorstop.

    Get a different fridge then. Plenty of very good fridge freezers for €1500 here

    What model is it as I don't believe such a price difference is genuine.

    And it is possible that it is artificially priced high in order to discount it for black Friday - curry's in particular are specialists at this practice.


    You can check Northern Ireland, but I suspect prices here are similar.

    We pay an ENORMOUS premium for a slightly different plug (everything else is exactly the same) and our lack of price sensitivity.
