I keep on telling myself that I'm too old for a PS4 but I still went all the way to the "place your order" page :disappointed: I hate this website

Cheers, purchased. Very happy with that deal.

payment is coming up as 221?

Does it come with a 3 pin plug?.

I'm in the lookout for a decent PS4 deal, if I buy this is it simply a case of buying one of these to make it the same as a UK model?

@topss how did you get £213.10? Coming up as £221.50 for me...

OP needs changing then...

is it worth buying this or should i rather buy the more expensive 1tb one?

Argh, buy this or wait June to see if the PS4K is real? Dann, decisions decisions, really wanted a PS4 to celebrate new job

Just edited it in, yet someones removed it, postage charge should be in the title or near it at least.

Strange... i tried to edit it too!

Depends how you decide to pay. The DELIVERED to UK price is (as stated) EUR 213.10. Paying with (for example) a Halifax Clarity card, the conversion will be made by the bank using Mastercards 'Payment scheme exchange rate' which at the moment works out at £213.46. This card has zero Non-sterling Transaction Fees. There are other cards too, so it all depends on what card you hold, which is why I said 'works out at around'. Obviously you would need to make the payment in Euros, which in nearly all of these type of cases is better than paying in GBP.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

arent consoles that are produced in other countries limited in terms of online features specifically to that country? like so a german ps4 wont work in the UK as a UK ps4 would?

price is now 259 euro dropped further.

There is a specific delivery charge to the UK, regardless of currency (I just tried to reorder using your method!)

500 GB is worthless. 1 TB is the best choice.

You must be doing something wrong.

Console price inc delivery is EUR 268.33





Current Mastercard conversion rate is 0.795528 GBP to EURO.

getting 404 error

It's still there.

Just goto http://www.amazon.de and search for playstation 4 500gb.

or try

http://www.amazon.de/PlayStation-Konsole-500GB-schwarz-CUH-1216A/dp/B010TNVS1W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1460883614&sr=8-1&keywords=playstation+4+500gb

The delivery charge is still there but by paying in Euros (268.33 inc delivery) you avoid Amazon's currency conversion fees, so works out cheaper than paying in GBP if you can get a better exchange rate (e.g. using a zero-fee card like Halifax Clarity as topss suggests).

Equates to £213.57 using Friday's MasterCard exchange rate as used by Clarity. The exact price paid will fluctuate depending on the transaction settlement date.

Thanks topss, heat added! :smiley:

will this ps4 work in the UK?

I'm getting £221 for it covered by Amazon.

I'm getting it for £221 as well still cheap

you need to buy in euros..halifax clarity card works see above?

I've already ordered by paying in GBP but wondering if I should cancel and re-order with EUR instead... My card is just a bog standard Halifax credit card, not Clarity, will it still work out cheaper?

Not worth hastle for a £10. Halifax will give there rate so migh be lower anyway.

I reckon the difference will only be a couple of quid anyway, the OP doesn't include the delivery charge.

Cheaper to buy this CUH-1216A and upgrade to 1TB yourself, rather than buying a CUH-1216B...

Went down by another 4€ and in stock but not sold by Amazon

Game online selling ps4 with star wars £249. Your text here

CUH-1216A? Link please?

https://****/ps4/
£250
I just ordered it. Yes the new model and star wars bundle. Happy days.
At game online.

Mine came to 275.45 euros, shipped to Spain.

Troll

​Oh right, assumed esen2010 was a troll due to three failed links, my bad. apologies esen2010.

I'm tempted to go for the Game bundle then... Less hassle if something goes wrong, no messing about with EU plug, and I was going to get Battlefront anyway. Plus it'll come quicker...

Price went back up to 341€

sorry i am new to PS.. will this english console?

I'm not sure that's correct - the mere fact that they are willing to post it to the UK means that they ARE aiming their products at the UK and therefore they must adhere to UK regulations, i.e. Plugs and Sockets, etc (Safety) Regulations 1994 - https://www.gov.uk/guidance/importing-and-exporting-electronic-goods

Amazon (.de, .fr etc) choose to ignore this, but they will compensate you.

I've done it a few times, most recently on a LG V10 I bought from Amazon.de - a quick email reminding them of their obligations when importing goods to the UK and of course they will not send you the proper lead ("we are not able to send spare parts"), but they did offer me 10% off the purchase price - more than enough to cover the correct conversion plug, or a new lead!

Interesting, 10% off a phone or console price is a lot, will think about it thanks.

Could you please elaborate a bit more about wht you told them?

Unless I'm reading that incorrectly, it doesn't mention that they have to supply a 3 pin plug, just the plug that they supply has to adhere to the UK/EU safety regulations i.e carry a CE stamp. Lets be honest too, ordering something from one of those Amazons isn't always straight forward because sometimes they will tell you they don't deliver some electrical goods to mainland UK. Like i said previously, Amazon tend to play ball, whereas other companies won't if you've bought something that isn't aimed at the UK market.

No, the above link refers to the Plugs and Sockets, etc (Safety) Regulations 1994 and Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 1994 which stipulates the 3 pin plug (BS 1363) proviso.

If an EU company is delivering to the UK then they are intending for it to be sold in the UK and they must comply. The item page on the Amazon EU sites always tell you whether they are going to deliver to the UK or not on each particular product.

And that is why when I asked Amazon for a discount to keep the product and source my own BS 1363 approved plug they were more than happy to offer me 10% off (I've heard of 15% being given as well).

Just because they choose not to comply does not mean that they are not supposed to.
