Thank me for that, in December 2011 I ordered a PC from them while living in
Belgium. It took a few days to speak to the right people, but in the end my main
argument, "what's the difference between shipping across the Irish sea, or
across the Channel" won. If it hadn't, I would have gone to the EU: Online shopping - When things go wrong, especially
the paragraph that reads:
Refusal to sell
It is illegal for
online stores based in the EU to refuse to sell to customers in a different EU
country.
For example, if you attempt to buy music or books over the internet
from a seller based in the EU but are prevented from doing so, or redirected to
your national web-store (which may have different products or prices), simply
because you live in a different EU country, then the on-line seller is acting
illegally.
To get help defending your rights in such a situation, contact your
country's European consumer centre.
I used this, with help of some
EU legal eagles, against Amazon.de, who refused to sell a UPS to Belgium, but
did sell it to Austria... I won![ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
