Amazon won't deliver to Cyprus

[sophie]

Is anyone else having this problem. We want to order to something to the value of 240.00 Sterling but message comes up to say "this seller does not deliver to Cyprus" Grateful for any advice. Thanks

Send to some one in UK who is coming over . Or DHL to South and you go and collect from DHL office, done this twice.

Sophie,
The reason being is that you are ordering from a ‘third party seller’ rather than ‘ sold and dispatched by Amazon’
If your order is sold and dispatched by Amazon you will get a tracking number and the order will be delivered in a timely manner.

Thanks, will have to give it some thought as to what to do.

Easy answer dont buy it!

Some type of goods they will not deliver, maybe it has batteries inside. Most goods are delivered to Cyprus.

Deniz1, I'll ignore your reply as it was just too silly for words.

Couldn't agree more. Some people have nothing better to do, apart from getting 'pie eyed' every day. Sad, very sad.

some people don't know others well enough to accuse them of getting pie eyed !!!

Surely if you want delivery to your TRNC postal address it’s ‘delivery to Turkey’ you need anyway? If I remember correctly that can cause problems too as Amazon can add customs duty for Turkey to your order, which doesn’t apply here, and I suppose you could also get charged here too. Definitely better to get someone to bring it out unless it’s too large.

[Mr Chinnery]

Aristabroad,
Amazon knock off the UK VAT, then they add on Turkish import duty and delivery cost. The final total you pay is a little bit more than if you had bought the goods to be delivered in UK. If you opt for standard delivery rather than express delivery you will save quite a bit and the goods will turn up just as quick.
You will be given a tracking number.
Goods ordered are sometimes in Istanbul within 36 hours. I would normally receive the goods in about 7 to 10 days depending when the order is placed.
Example, I have ordered from Amazon on a Wednesday and received them the following Wednesday.

From what we can ascertain, it is your Message 3 that applies in our case. We are trying to find a suitable replacement at the moment.

Damn cheek I have never been pie eyed in my life thank you very much. Unless it is something so important to buy and you cant get it anywhere else and its causing you a lot of grief then dont buy it.

Is giving up at the first hurdle the way to go though? As a race I don't think that would have got us very far.
