Finally happened. Wonder will we still get same bargains as UK site??
Only a matter of time before free delivery from the .co.uk site stops (or delivery stops completely). Then we'll be compelled to shopt on ripoff .ie.
I think we all saw this as bad news and sure enough, it is.
Which Max?
Hagglezon website is great for comparing prices across all European Amazon sites. Always use it before making purchases. Hopefully they will add the Irish site to the search.
Just curious. What is the difference between this Max and the ones for sale on Adverts for €55?
Getting the sense that several German suppliers that were listed initially have either delisted on IE or have changed their shipping prices — looks like some were inadvertently offering free shipping. I had an order cancelled by a retailer without explanation and then all of their listings disappeared from IE
There are some available on there but seems to be a limited number that are actually available to order.
I don't like to promote them because of their spam here but you'll find those small items are the same items you can get on Temu. The difference is Temu stuff takes longer to arrive but its half the price or less. One item I bought on Amazon.co.uk was €16 and got a second one on Temu for €6. I don't think there is any item on Temu that isn't also on Amazon.
Anyone know if the amazon ie site ships power banks?
This is incorrect, you cannot
Used my €10 off €50 voucher last night. Got a storage rack for the attic for €42 (£50 on UK site) and a wireleas silent mouse for €10 (£8 on UK site). Got the 2 items for €42 with free delivery. Will probably check between the 2 sites for things but imagine I'll largely stick to the UK one.
No your .ie will work to sign into Kindle on the .co.uk website . Amazon have a FAQ section on the site and it says both will be linked so no need to maintain both.
Yes and if those individual retailers set themselves up as a business in NI instead of ROI they should be able to avoid having to charge MUP
Currently €41 for 3 boxes of Barry's Gold Blend delivered so I wouldn't hold out much hope of it being cheaper than the local corner shop
Whenever I go into Amazon UK, I get a message asking me to switch to Prime Ireland. How do I stop this appearing?
As far as I can see, Amazon.ie is a poor relation. Quite a few items in my basket are more expensive on .ie and others don't appear.
Just seen you cant share prime benefits within a family group on the Irish site which is a deal breaker for me, won't be switching unless that changes
When the price is abnormally high it usually means the item is out of stock or discontinued
Seems like there are some really strange prices on it. Perhaps some kind of teething problems or it's not ranking things correctly, but when you see a box of dishwasher tablets for €100 there's something definitely not quite right.
I just looked at some Phillips Shaver cleaner, which was a little cheaper on the ie site.
However, at present, they lack the range of items. On the UK site you could always get a wide range of small items, USB cables etc on the "deals". This is not yet true of the Irish site.
I was checking out some 4TB External Transcend Hard Drives I usually buy from Amazon.de. They are €137 each on the .de site (with aporox €15 shipping the last time I bought a few). They are just over €200 each on the .ie site, so no change for where I'll be buying :-)
That's why I like it
Bout bloody time
I wonder if we might see some Irish producers / retailers of alcohol set up shop - should be easier on an .ie site for Irish sales.
Just had a quick look ….. You can't buy kindle books on the irish site.
That is the same item, but two different sellers.
One item I bought this week is 540 on the IE site, 35 euro cheaper on the UK site, 70 euro cheaper on the German site
So even with import duties the IE site is still a rip off with the pricing
If you switch, you lose free delivery from Amazon UK. You should still be able to purchase Amazon UK Prime (effectively having Prime Ireland and Prime UK) until such a time as they no longer include Ireland for free delivery from the UK site. I moved over to monthly Prime payments solely for this reason, as my yearly Prime just finished there. If you have no Amazon UK Prime, there's a £35 min order value (items fullfilled via Amazon) to qualify for free delivery to Ireland. Again, I'm not sure how long that will remain.

From the above link.
Above €150 yes
Just checking Irish prices on some items I purchased on the UK site. Absolute ripoff. Hopefully we're not forced to move prime onto the .ie site.
Maybe, no and yes.... 😂
Do you still get free delivery from the UK site if you switch prime over to the Irish site, or are you effectively locking yourself into the .ie site? Looks like a nice saving in switching prime over and I don't use family or reading which seems to be the only drawbacks people keep mentioning. Went through my most recent few purchases and prices were pretty much identical between the two, a euro one way or another here and there, seems to be a direct currency conversion with a bit of rounding.
Yes, if it ships from the UK.
