To claim VR
Coming Soon The claim form for this promotion will not open until 27th October, as claims cannot be made until 30 days have passed from your purchase date.
Please return to submit your claim after 30 days but no later than 60 days from your purchase date, as per the Terms & Conditions.
Safe yes, good idea no. They confirmed to me via email that it is NOT an EU model and that means Samsung won't honour any warranty. You get a 1 year warranty from the retailer and not the 2 years from Samsung.
Any these ridiculously cheap handsets from obscure online sites will be UAE/Hong Kong/etc handsets

Unless box.co.uk are giving the free headset and controller, I doubt John Lewis will price match because it's not the same promotion

Will John Lewis honour the price match as their offer includes the VR headset & box.co.uk doesn't?

You need to submit a price match request with John Lewis. Order with them, paying the higher price first and then claim back the difference between them and box.co.uk after you are happy with the phone.
