    One more post... haha

    Was an automated invoice based on an incorrect discount rate. ;)

    I would suspect the UK and the Irish micro-sites share the same product database, but with simple price conversions.

    Good luck everyone.

    Thanks for the last comment... see can I eek one more out of you.

    Your price: £98 (or so I've heard)
    Our (Irish price): €89 - which is roughly £60(?)

    ...maybe it's because Apple like Irish students better? :p

    Anyway so it doesn't seem to be simple price conversions...

    ok this will def be my last post .....cause there coming to take me away ha ha there coming to take me away .........

    but i couldnt resist one last comment...are you telling me that apple uk where actually going to sell this camera for about 20 quid cheaper to people who logged into the irish site........
  • DOesn't matter how automatic it is does it, it was sent in the order confirmation and then they were happy to take the money out of my account in addition to this.

    I have been drafting my letter this evening helped by the advise of a member. I bought two cameras, one for myself and one for the girlfriend. Is it weakness to state I will accept only one in my letter or a good will offer from my part?

    as long as you can prove that they were order for eligible persons then should be no problem, but you never knw what they might say. after all all you are doing is paying in one name but buying in two.
    sorry i couldn't be more helpful

    I don't know. You can go check... are northern Ireland's colleges included in the UK section? If so then I don't think the Irish site allows them.
