  • Phew. That sounds OK to me.

    Interestingly, I got an email tonight after I started this post :




    I had a message on my answering machine tonight - 'Hi, its Lee here from redstarimports, sorry for the delay, the snow has meant we haven't had a Parcelforce collection all week. You should get your iPAd on Tuesday'

    Looks like I might have got an iPAD for £100 under the PC World price.

    A couple of weeks worrying might be worth it

    I take back what i said seems like they are the real deal.
  • Where are they actually coming from?
    Will there be extra customs duty due??

    How can it be legit. Those iPads are incredibly cheap. :think:
    Could be refurbs or customer returns.

    Might also get stung with import duty and VAT if they're coming in from outside the EU.

    VAT is added at the 'checkout'. And Ireland is in the EU isn't it.

    Doesn't mean they're shipped from the EU though.

    I'm not saying they are, just that they could be. Might be a reason they are so cheap.

  • Hi salacious crumb

    Did you ever get your ipad. I've found a great deal on this website as well but they do look suspicious and are not registered with companies house or the Irish equivalent
