What's the best place to buy PC hardware in Ireland? Both online and brick-and-mortar shops in Dublin will do. Which places have the best variety and prices?

.de? .co.uk? UK stores that usually limit purchases to UK only during high demand? Really? :confused:

I'm not Irish, but there must be something else, surely.
Ireland has possibly the worst prices for PC components in the entire EU. The Irish usually buy from Germany and the UK.

http://alternate.de - good Shop with good Service. Alternate is huge. They got a physical Shop near Frankfurt in the giant Warehouse-Complex. They get the Stuff direct flown in from Asia by the nearby Frankfurt Airport which is Europes biggest Cargo-Airport and a major Passenger-Airport. I love this Shop. They got the new Stuff really fast and they are very reliable.

Mindfactory is in financial Trouble according to the Press. Better avoid this Store at this Time.

alternate is bad. I really doubt it will be different for irish.

From AT I'm not allowed to buy the good deals from alternate.de, but only the trash deals from alternate.at. Different shops .de vs .at and different prices and different goods. .at is not worth at all. (they are called for good reasons scalpernate by some)

Shopping from different amazon is possible.

I bought my Samsung tablet from amazon.es, I usually shop from amazon.de from AT. (amazon consider AT same area as DE) Shipping costs apply. You need a translator for the emails.

There's a brick and mortar Curry's in Dublin:

Unit 15-17, Jervis Street Shopping Centre, Jervis St, North City, Dublin, D01 E7W2, Ireland


They've got a better choice than most places.
