It has to be sold by Amazon.co.uk

it is tending to go out of stock very quickly and will not be shown as sold by amazon.co.uk if there is no stock for Tusky below

Market place sellers then are shown

This offer is on at the moment.

I cant believe how quickly these seem to sell. I saw it for 147, processed the payment, posted here that they were available and checked back and they were gone.

Just checked - back up to normal price. I'm having no luck with this!

[edit] These are on Tesco.co.uk for £158 - could you get it delivered here via parcelmotel?

I think you can order from Tesco direct, UK, for delivery to Parcel Motel. You can see the following link where there is some information which may be of any use for your query. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=81931426#post81931426

The price you are seeing now is not normal price.

That is just the price of Amazon Marketplace sellers, Amazon are out of stock.

Alot of people are getting confused with the price.

When amazon is out of stock they will automatically show the price of the cheapest Marketplace seller.

Amazon will always promote their price first for obvious reasons, and if the following information is not showing up beside the price well then it is not Amazon who is selling the product. In stock. Dispatched from and sold by Amazon.co.uk

Hope this helps some people

I just placed an order for a cover for this on amazon.co.uk and now I see that it just says cover for samsung galaxy tab. Is there a difference in size between the original tab and the tab2 as I am now wondering if the cover will fit.

I got the 3G one for my hubbie, but I have no idea what data sim to get for this. Can anyone recommend a good deal, he will have wifi at home & work, so it will onlt be if he has to do some basic stuff if he is somewhere (look up a website and maybe log details on occassion). He will not be downloading movies or music etc.

Anyone any idea of who has the best deal or should he stick with his provider?
(Vodafone - €9.99 for 1 Gb......but I hate the idea of him going over & each extra Gb will then cost €20.....scandalous!!!)

perhaps this could be unmarked as expired as it keeps reappearing at the OP's price every day

If it was me i wouldnt bother getting a sim for it, wait and see if he really really needs it. You will probably find that he wont need it at all and its a waste of money. I would suggest if he has an iphone (I have, not sure about other smart phones), you can share your internet data with the tablet, so what this means it will keep using the data from your phone package. I have unlimited and most phone packages now have quite high data available, so I think this would be a really good option for you instead of having another bill that will probably rarely be used. Hope I have explained this well

Thanks Mel - He does not have a smartphone & I can't see him looking to get one soon.

I reckon the tablet will be easier for him to use on the odd time he may need it for work - sometimes he is in a position (whilst at someones home) to need look things up or book in"appontment", this will probably only happen about 3/4 per month.

He normally just returns to the office & sorts it then, I reckon it will save him time to be able to state to the client what has been sorted out.

So really, just need to know which company offers the best 3G data pack
Thanks

Silver is available at moment at stg 147 (prob stg 152 with Irish VAT)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab2-inch-Tablet/dp/B0080OQJDK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1353917804&sr=8-1

Scratch that.

I agree with earlier poster that this shouldn't be marked as "expired" as the deal keeps coming back almost every day on Amazon

Does he not have 3G on his phone ? I just use my phone as a "personal hotspot" whenever I need internet on my Ipad.
