Buying from Germany?
coozer - 21/6/14 at 08:39 PM

I'm trying to buy a tablet and the one I want is most cost affective from the DE.

Its either hard to come by anywhere here in the UK or costs a good premium on what they are paying over there.

So, its either Amazon.de but the webby is all in german so not too sure a few things..

Then this lot keep popping up with sites all over europe.

Anyone used them or know anything about how big they claim to be?

Now, the other thing is I'll be popping over to Malaga in the near future and wonder if its worth having a look there ??

The tablet I'm after is this model:

Asus MEMO PAD FHD 10 ME302KL-1B047A

Thanks,

amazon.de seems to be a regular bargain place for lots of electricals. Try and pay by paypal, and consider the vat and customs charges as well to ensure it is definitely the bargain you expect, but apart from that it appears to be quite safe.

Remember anything bought from within the EU is NOT subject to additional UK VAT or customs duties. However, there are quite a lot of places that aren't in the EU that people might think are.

What he says!

German is definitely in the EU, so the price you see, is the price you pay!
