    Why would they not honour it? Is it a misprice?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 151 ✭✭viboy

    Worth going up to the one for 149.99 ?

    No idea mate just going by the ideas on here that it might be. For me it's 97 ex VAT so worth a punt anyway.

    Nah


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,230 ✭✭✭jaxxx


    Was really tempted, but I just couldn't sit well with a white one (wait is that racist? techcist??)

    Just doing some browsing and see that Currys have it for €200. Opinions folks, do you think I'd be better splashing the extra €80 for the Plus or sticking with the standard one for €120? I'm actually in the market for a tablet anyway (inexpensive only), so I'm annoyed AF I didn't see this thread a few hours ago!

    I had one in my cart, but right after I put in my credit card details at the check out I was told it was out of stock. Gutted :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Boradriver


    Ordered earlier on and I received an order submitted email, followed by an order confirmed email 2 minutes later. Paid by card.

    Yes. The ad says up to 50% off but this is a 60% reduction.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 894 ✭✭✭NTC


    I got the confirmation email, ordered 2. Hopefully they will arrive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,417 ✭✭✭.G.


    I was looking at the wrong email address! I got the confirmation email thankfully.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,354 ✭✭✭coldfire1x


    Damn I was out in the evening and missed this. Was looking for a tablet. :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Boradriver


    Looks like they've changed the price of the out of stock black model to €269.99 now. I believe this was €149.99 earlier. White one still showing as out of stock at €119.99.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,324 ✭✭✭Tilikum17


    Finally got my email anyway. Many hours later.

    Thanks op.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,881 ✭✭✭Peatys


    Is this the spec of the one that was for 119 yesterday?
    Checked my confirmation email and no specs.

    The amount of people here by their own admission bought it without even needing it, how is that a bargain buying something that you didn't even need. It was too good to pass up etc lol

    Of course nobody needs it. That doesn't mean they won't use it and enjoy using it. It's not a box of nappies when you don't have kids, or a 10kg bag of dog food when you only have a goldfish FFS.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Boradriver


    Hard luck on missing out.

    Look on the bright side, you have 119 euro extra in your account, did you really need this, most people have really good mobiles now, I never use my iPad which is about 6 or 7 years old at this stage, like you, i added this to cart and then asked myself, 'why am I buying this', it's only a bargain if you need it. Will use the 119 euro to buy something I need and will use.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,030 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    I bought it simply because I like catching up on Netflix on flights and my archaic Kindle Fire doesn't support the Netflix app where you can download and store offline.. so that's justification enough for me! :D

    Will I be disappointed if it's a misprice and doesn't ship? Yeah, probs.

    No doubt there will be plenty available on Adverts next week for the 'still-a-bargain' price of €200 - €250 :D.

    I didn't need it, but its something we considered nice to have in work in order to facilitate record keeping at stations without using pens and paper and transcribing the record later to pc. But we needed a decent spec to run the apps we need, so at 97 quid we couldn't pass it while we didn't strictly need it. I'm sure others are the same

    Thanks OP. Was going to be buying the Amazon Fire 8 soon but this is a much better tablet! Hopefully it comes through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,324 ✭✭✭Tilikum17


    Just got this.......

    If it’s more that a few weeks they can F off. How can they take the order when they don’t have stock?

    Its a tablet, who needs a tablet? A phone can do everything it can do.

    120 brings it into disposable cash area..

    You have to bear in mind the amount of orders that potentially went through yesterday, no doubt due to the activity here. The site wouldn't necessarily been able to keep the remaining stock count up to date with the volume of orders coming in.

    You have an 8" screen phone?

    I've a top end phone which can do everything a tablet can do and more (make calls, use WhatsApp etc) but when travelling for a few days I prefer to bring a tablet for primarily two reasons:-

    1. I can keep on top of work via an 8" screen and Bluetooth keyboard whereas a 5.5" phone screen just doesn't have enough real estate to use productively for responding to emails, reviewing documents, spreadsheets and presentations etc.

    2. I can load up the tablet with TV Series and Movies (downloading from Netflix is a great option) and watch comfortably on a large(er) screen than my phone which also means my phone doesn't get too cluttered with content.

    It's €120.

    A pitch side ticket to see Taylor Swift in Croke Park next month is €144 + booking fees.

    All be grand.

    I actually was in the market for a tablet to replace my ancient Nexus 7 which is pretty much just a book end at this stage. €119 would have been an absolute steal for a tablet with those specs, assuming the transactions go through of course.
