Ireland is part of the European Union so there is no import taxes.

The Nano edition is an Online exclusive and is not intended for store sale.

Many stores that had pre-orders were only given 1, some even got nothing.

As I am keeping my sealed, I don't need to worry about the statue not working, but having one that does is a real kick in the teeth. Especially because of hassle you had to get it.

it is annoying alright. the worst of it all is many big game developers and retailers see ireland as been in the uk when we aint. no offence to anyone from the uk but were seperate country. play.com took ubisoft to court over gamestop in ireland selling the black edition of assaiasans creed as they had paid for exclusive rights worldwide. the problem was when they submitted there list of countries to ubisoft ireland wasnt on the list they persumed we were part of the uk. the lost there court case and gamestop sold the black edition. same thing happened with the codex edition. there is very few who sees us as been our country with noting to do with the uk. sorry for ranting it just annoys me

LOL - Well I know Royalmail doesn't class you as UK. It cost 3 times as much to send small parcels over to you.
