Found this quite by accident, and have now bought three for relatives and friends. Had no experience of retailer previously, but they have been excellent, and seem to have a great reputation. Official UK stock, saving a massive £30 over Amazon prices, so whats not to like!
Use coupon THANKYOU699 for a £6.99 reduction.
The coupon should work for you, but I have given the baseline price in case it doesn't - even at £79.99 its a steal. Hopefully this will solve some Christmas present problems for a few people.

Hi,
when you ordered of these did the Kindle come with adverts or is it the advert free one? I did see this but wasnt sure on the company & if they were UK stock

this is the version with ads, which from reading reviews appears to be annoyingly intrusive.

Hi - Its the one with the offers, but I cannot see the issue with these. They are only visible when you are on the home screen, not when you are reading a book - As you spend most of your time in the book itself, its a tiny price to pay for a £10 saving. The Amazon one with offers is still £109.99, so it is a like for like comparison (the one without 'Offers' is £119.99). Believe me, I didn't like the idea of this Amazon promotion but it really is so unobtrusive that I wouldn't consider paying £10 more to have without offers.
Hope this helps. :smile:

That seems unlikely as they updated the Paperwhite less than 5 months ago (June 30th 2015).

I have to disagree - I was very cynical about the advert version, as a Kindle reader of many years. But it is easily ignored and doesn't affect the experience at all in my humble opinion. How something can be 'annoyingly intrusive' when it isn't even an issue when you are reading the book - The adverts do not show on the screen when you are 'in book' which (when you are reading, the two versions are identical), without wishing to be rude, is what the Kindle is for. So you see a small ad at the bottom of the screen when you are selecting your next book to read, which may take you a couple of minutes - It's easily ignored, and thats not going to be an issue for most people.
If you are purist who would find something as insignificant as this a major issue then, by all means, pay Amazon an extra £50 to have an advert free home screen. I know what I would do however... :wink:

This company avoids VAT

Apparently you aren't entirely correct here (see the subsequent reply). And interesting you make this comment about this company, when we all know what exemplary models of dubious tax paying Amazon are themselves. But I'm not seeing people vetoing them on that basis...

Thanks, this was top of my presents to buy list so very much appreciate the excellent price.
Worth noting it's 2% cashback at Quidco, although as with Topcashback there's no guarantee that they'll pay when you use a discount code too.
