Website I found that delivers new cameras to Ireland. Has Dslr's at amazing prices. Just wondering if anyone has used it? Seems legit but I'm always weary.

Ordered a 3300 camera and got a dispatched email. However, the tracking number didn't work so I don't know where the camera is at present. I'll panic if its not here this time next week ;-)

Delivered today - can't believe the speed of it! Ordered on Friday!!

Another positive review here. I ordered a HTC One M8 from them and had it delivered within 5 days with a free universal charging cable included. It shipped from the UK and was delivered by UPS, there were no issues with customs.

Also worth mentioning, when I tried to order the phone a month ago after I had sent payment, they informed me it was out of stock and were not sure when it would be available again, they refunded my payment almost immediately which was good to see.

Interesting what says on the slip attached to the package. I don't think this party will end up soon

The reason for that is each time I order something from them the package comes from different address, company name etc. And I do order a lot of them. They can get cut if customs open the package, but then again their T&c's state:
"16. Import, VAT & Customs
16.1 To simplify the process of buying internationally, eglobal central choose to handle the process of custom clearance for customers. By purchasing products through eglobal central, you authorise eglobal central to make arrangements for clearance of customs on your behalf for the products in your order. As importing products from overseas can be a hassle for most of our customers, we organise this process for you. We then provide you with fast local shipping to deliver the goods to your door. As a result, prices shown on this website are the final total you have to pay to have the order delivered to your door, without any hidden charges and customs delay."
That means they pay tax in case they got cut.
So I still do think it is safe to buy from them

Sounds like this party may be winding down.

After a flawless first order where I received my delivery in less than a week after ordering, my latest order was the complete opposite!

It took 29 days for me to receive the package. After the package arrived in Ireland I got an email from DHL saying they needed me to email over a copy of the payment details as required by customs. Then an email from EGlobal saying they had made an "error" over shipping charges regarding the item. The item was held by customs for 2 weeks with no updates given. Rang DHL several times over the 2 weeks and they had no clue to how it was being held for so long.

Finally received the package yesterday and thankfully didn't recieve any charges

Interesting, wonder how/why eglobal got involved?
Maybe the customs charges were paid by eglobal?
If so and if customs have copped onto what eglobal's been doing, i.e. putting a value of €14 on the packages to evade duty then eglobal might not be as handy as before? Pity as I was about to buy a Nikon D7100 having had 2 previous successful purchases, think I'll hold off a while and see what happens.

Also, next Canon lens I'll be buying will be from them

Many thanks for the reply. Did you register the camera with Canon? any rebate on the MIII?

I'm thinking of chancing a Canon 24-70 f2.8 II from them. €1500 is the cheapest online. Still a huge pile of money for me though so it is quite a risk.

1. Would you?
2. Am I getting a genuine "New", "Canon" product ?
3. Can I register the lens with Canon and avail of their warranty?
4. Does it qualify for any Canon rebate ?

Sorry for all the questions. If anyone can answer any of them, I'd be very grateful.

Thinking of ordering a phone off these, would love to see the stats on what % of items (specifically phones) get stopped by customs before ordering though.

Just wondering is there anything that can be done to minimize the risk of it being stopped? For example say i ordered a smartphone along with a SD card and a case for the phone would it be more likely to be stopped than if i had just ordered the phone on its own?

I'm not sure how it works but would the fact that there are 3 items in the package make it more likely that customs would check the parcel?

Mt advice is order on a weekend or on a monday thats what i always did. Id highly recommend you get the Xiaomi power bank its the real one unlike the fakes on Ebay and it charges your phone really quick and its at a good price. Id also advise you to buy your sd cards too cus i paid €25 for a 16gb ultra class 10 in argos the price said €12.99 on the sticker but it was a different price at the till and i didnt notice until i had paid and Argos dont refund you only get a credit note.

A 32gb ultra class 10 on Eglobal is the same price as the 16gb you get on argos i have one but id highly advice you buy all with the phone cus my last time buying stuff here i bought over €50 worth of stuff but had to pay for delivery.

If you follow what i say you will be grand just know the bands on the phone i bought a LG G2 Mini here and its a great phone unreal battery life and you can replace it too happy buying.... oh use the free delivery option its just as quick good luck.....

Sheeps

my lens arrived vat free two days after delivery

Just ordered myself a 24-105mm f4L. They're the cheapest they've been in a while, with the discount code got it for €515. Dispatched this morning. Was in need of a decent walk around lens.

Just bought a few light items like SD cards a power bank and some headphones which came to €65 but with a €6.99 discount code this then came to €58 and i was sure i'd get free shipping as i still spent over €50 i only put a few extra items there to reach the free shipping amount, but it seems Eglobal charge for shipping regardless of this for light packages so just be on the look out, free shipping only applies if you spend more than €100 and if its a boxed item like a phone.

Lesson learned but still saved way more on the SD cards than i would have if i had of shopped in Argos or Amazon.

I think you'll have to give proof of your address by sending a picture of your drivers licence. If you use parcel motel id give the Irish address they give you.
Cause if they see the UK address it will look odd to them.

i would use the dublin address, but it won't match my drivers license. i don't understand why they need that though, if you pay via paypal!

Hi folks,

I spotted this

https://www.eglobalcentral.eu/nikon-d3300-kit-with-18-55mm-vr-ii-lens-digital-slr-camera-red.html

This was incorrectly listed at 404e in Argos and I missed out. Its now at 540e (ish) and therefore I would be keen to make up for this missed out deal.

Are they safe to deal with? I am travelling out to the US Wed week and would like to have it for the trip!

Feck it - I placed the order - fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
