How does this normally work for the cost of shipping and also if you have to return the item as have seen a few deals on here before for Amazon in other countries?
Thanks Mark.

Price of deal includes shipping. If you have to return the SSD in case of fault you will have to return it to Amazon Germany and they will pay the shipping costs. But personally I have never heard of a Samsung SSD fail. True, I have pointed that out in the deal body. It's up to everybody to choose what's the best choice for them, to deal with Amazon UK or DE or not at all :smiley:

Excellent price for the drive alone.
No free copy of The Division with this one though so if you wanted that you can get it for £120 from a couple of qualifying uk suppliers which technically makes it £90 if you factor the game at a discounted £30... Obviously only if you wanted it anyway and need to order by tomorrow.
