Yes bought some myself, no issue. I tend to stick to those "sold by Amazon" rather than 3rd party's on the site.
The French and German sites also worth a look, just bear in mind for those the charger supplied will be a mainland EU plug.

I think you may be liable for additional charges from the .co.uk Amazon site when importing into Ireland these days but it may depend on seller and it may be added at point of sale.
I've been buying from the German site the past couple of years.
