    I have 2 invites to giveaway. I think there is around 23 hours left on them and I'm fairly sure they are both for the 64gb Sandstone Black version. If anyone wants them, let me know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,573 ✭✭✭digitaldr


    I have one invite to give away for sandstone black expires in about 22 hours. If I don't get a PM here within the next hour or so I'll be giving it away on the OPO forums.

    What's the shipping time on this bad boy?
    I snagged an invite (when the Black Friday promotion was over).

    Surely the 64GB will be shipped within 1 - 3 days, as stated on the website.


    (And I will be giving out invites to Boardsies when I get them)

    Mine was shipped 4 days after I other and had it 4 days after so 8 days in total. It was a day and a half with parcel motel.

    I'm sure you mean that the phone was left in the motel for a day and a half, as in you didn't collect it?

    Also, was this standard or express mail?

    The phone was 358. So about 362 including parcel motel. I'm a bit annoyed with the paypal currency conversion. The phone came to £274.29 and according to my bank app thats €338.

    Seeing as the figures for Parcel Motel route are given above, I'll give you (and anybody else who's interested) the figures for the mailboxde route.

    Phone came to €299, and the delivery came to €19.99 for standard shipping. €318.99 in total leaving OnePlus.

    Delivery and handling costs from mailboxde came to €17.41 with DHL Priority "Weltpacket", and that comes with insurance of up to €500. There's a little charge added on if you pay with Paypal/Credit Card, so that bumped the total cost from mailboxde to €18.16.

    All in all, it cost me €337.15.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 12,333 ✭✭✭✭JONJO THE MISER


    Ive registered and trying to buy but it giving me the us price and address, when i change to the uk flag it logs me out:confused:
    Anyone know what to do?

    That's the price of the 64GB version on the German version of site. It's the price we should be paying here, really. It's a shame we're not one of the launch countries.

    I feel completely ripped off! :pac: Still great value phone in the grand scheme.

    It is, definitely. The upside of getting it via Parcel Motel is that you have it almost straight away. In the case of getting it via Germany, it ships from London to Germany and back again, and then from the UK to here. That said, I didn't mind the wait for the lesser price. It depends on the person really.

    Still trying to buy phone with invite but every time it brings me to the u.s site.

    This also happened to me, just keep going as if you were buying from the U.S. site right up until you need to fill in your details. That's what I did, as far as I can remember.

    Out of curiosity, if you don't mind me asking, which option will you be choosing to go with to get it delivered?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,206 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood


    Just click on the flag on bottoms of page and change it to UK flag.

    Im going with parcel motel as i will have it faster than from germany, extra 25 i know.

    Yeah, just fill in your home address for billing, and Parcel Motel address for shipping.

    Funnily enough it wouldn't work for me when I put in my home address, and out of frustration I put the same address into both of them. Didn't seem to make a difference though, so no harm done I guess.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 160 ✭✭up4dabah


    If anyone has a spare invite, i will gladly take it off your weary hands ;)

    Well that was a complete and utter waste of over 2 hours, get to payment and You will need to add and confirm your bank account. You cannot use this credit card for this transaction. Once your bank account has been added and confirmed, you can continue this payment. Add your bank account information below.
    Forget it a joke of a site:mad:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 12,333 ✭✭✭✭JONJO THE MISER


    Why is the only form of payment with paypal, they wont accept my credit card on there and i dont have a bank account as i keep money with netteller and moneybookers.
    Looks like no oneplusone for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 160 ✭✭up4dabah


    Ok so i ordered it with mailboxde:

    €299.00 for the phone
