Philips Hue White and Colour starter kit available at Amazon France on deals of the day.
Includes 3 x E27 LED bulbs (new brighter 2015 version vs recent deal on Philips website) and the new 2.0 Hub.
Appreciate it's a marmite-esque product but could be useful to a few people. Bridge can be sold for £30 without too much trouble as it's the new one and sought after so you're left with roughly £23-£24 per bulb if you are after extra bulbs alone.
£98 delivered if paying by fee free card. Otherwise you're looking at approximately £101.90 if using the Amazon current converter.
Currently £149.99 on Amazon UK which is the RRP here.

Ridiculously overpriced bulbs that don't even give you the full spectrum. Me and a mate had a set. I ended up letting him buy the set entirely to use himself.
Magic Blue bulbs are better, app is better, these bulbs provide a better spectrum.

So by that comment your mate thinks you're talking out of your backside and gladly took them off you for a cheaper price....
I have 14 different Hue lights in my home, still waiting for a deal on coloured GU10's and love em.

Send them an email via the help page like normal. If you have a good Euro rate card then pay in Euros, otherwise they will charge you £101.90 and do the currency conversion themselves (no bank fees)

Cool. So did you contact Amazon France via chat or UK?
Does it matter what payment method I use or should I only use something like a Halifax Clarity card to get the stated price after conversion?

Taken the plunge. I was debating over these the past few weeks.I had a €10 credit on my Amazon.fr account plus the €10 refund will make these about £80 for me as I live in France. Thanks robo989

These are nice but I just can't justify the price. for a Milight bulb a while back that has served me very well and allows for good automation

Hmmmm. £70+ for 3 bulbs. You'll have to be using these for 100's of years for them to offset the cost of normal CFL bulbs.

Not sure if you are trolling or don't know what these are, but in case it's a legitimate statement, these are not to save you money, they do use less electricity than CFL yes, however they are designed for home automation setting scenes in your home, the lights can automatically come on when you get home, you can change the colours from your phone and also via Siri if you have an iPhone... It's not cheap tech, but when the bulbs sell for £50 each this deal is a bargain in comparison! Hot!

In the past when I've had issues with European orders, Amazon UK have stepped in and helped.
