On Amazon.de this is a bargain if anyone is looking for a new bean to cup coffee machine, RRP is €1099.
UK amazon 3rd party shop best price is currently priced at £469 so almost half price once exchanged from € to £.
There is one selling for £599+ on Ebay on Hughes outlet, so surely a nice Christmas present for anyone wanted to switch from Kettle coffee to bean to cup coffee.

Nice find and a excellent buy, but I think your price is a little off.
Todays Visa exchange rate is 1.3752 so even if you assume no conversion fee (there are a few cards, but not many) its still £297.40. When I clicked through to purchase the amazon conversion price is £316

Its a good price but after having my Delonghi go wrong just out of warranty and reading how common that is ( they fixed it for free anyway) i wouldn't risk buying one from another country. I'd get the £266 model from amazon uk and froth milk the old fashioned way.

as this is Amazon direct , Germany. you get the same warranty and exchange policy as it would be UK, you can even drop it off at a UK amazon drop off point and they will ship a replacement within the 2 years warranty.

Often wondered about purchases direct from Amazon outside the UK. Don't suppose you can point to something on Amazon confirming that, can you? Wonder if it also applies to mobiles - where the Amazon prices vary quite a lot?

Seems too good to be true. Beautiful model, great reviews, super expensive in UK too

As i said, my Delonghi went wrong just after the warranty ran out and from reviews of bean to cup machines, thats quite common.
I was told by Amazon to deal direct with the manufacturer, which was fine because the country i was getting it fixed in was the country i bought it in. I'm not saying Krups wouldn't do the same for a coffee machine bought in another country but i'd have to hear it direct from them to believe it.
Great price, but looking at some of the reviews on Trusted Reviews etc, it doesn't seem heat the coffee sufficiently.

just a warning bought a bean to cup from amazon.de earlier this year ( huge ! compared to my nespresso lattisama or tassimo ) came dead on arrival so had to send back , it cost £83 royal mail ,
luckily amazon refunded but huge postage costs if it goes wrong

CBA to look, but am confident the Royal mail cost could be halved by using a different courier. Not that it matters either way if Amazon cover it.
Hmmm. This has never been above €499 on amazon.de, spending most of it's time at €499 or €399, so the RRP is clearly a joke.

Great price though.....
Another bargain from Krups and Amazon.de is the better Krups machine EA850 at under £400 delivered (Eur 518)
