Ryzen 5 1600. Few quid cheaper than the Amazon UK cost (£188), with Amazon IT selling it for £184 delivered.
As usual, select to pay with EUR not GBP and be sure to use a fee free card, or service like Revolut/Monzo.
Not a huge saving, but you can have a coffee and a pastry with the difference!
Lowest ever price:

£4 cheaper? I'd rather spend the £4 and buy it from the UK. It would cost way more than £4 to send it back to Italy in the event of a return.

If you need to return it for a fault Amazon will provide a shipping label.
Nobody has a gun to your head, buy from Amazon UK. Fairly simple.

Dude, HUKD members once caused an 90% slow down in global bandwith because somebody found beans at Tesco with 3 shiny pence off. It reached 1000000000 degrees heat and was mentioned in the queens speech. True story

Given all the threats of divorce bill, etc, I would rather pay £5 extra to buy from UK and channel the VAT directly to our government.

Plus currency costs? Plus the waranty in UK is different to France? Different laws on what the company is obliged to if something is damaged etc.
Also note AMD has launched the budget Ryzen 3 range today. From £109.99 on Amazon. Options for a 4 core, 4 thread chip. With option to upgrade in a few years time. Easy to OC to 3.9ghz.
There is no currency cost, read the OP. Amazon's return policy isn't really questionable.

Ok price not much of a saving but still, heat.
Found it funny that amazon don't have ryzen 3 in stock and the pre-order they have for the 1200 is £7 more (£105) than scan and overclockers ( £98 ) , guess amazon are at it again, I'm really glad these other retailers exist amazons pricing policy's are getting out of hand, I remember when they were the cheapest no matter where you looked, it's also worth note that while amazon dodge the tax system these other retailers manage just fine while providing btr prices, I find it harder and harder to shop with amazon there greed has no bounds.

I posted a deal when this CPU released back in May. I bought mine from Amazon.fr and had to return it to France due to being DoA. Just spend the extra £4 and avoid the hassle.

There is no currency conversion charge, however there is always currency cost in the difference in rates they use to convert.
