Lattissima + shipping via Amazon.it more expensive than in August?

So I'm looking at grabbing a Lattissima plus and saw this:

http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/77900

The price is still the same but just wondering why shipping jumped up so much?
At the time the shipping for the deal above was EUR 45.50, now when I try to checkout its sitting at EUR 75.01

and the only option was the Express (2 - 6 giorni lavorativi)

Was there just some kind of shipping promo, or do I take vat off the shipping as well? Or is there some kind of coupon?

  • No coupon and express shipping was the only option. I suspect they have just jacked up the shipping rates.

  • I just ordered the blue one the other day

    http://www.amazon.it/DeLonghi-EN-520-BL-macchina-caff%C3%A8/…

    its 40 euro for shipping

    wanted the red one cause it was 15 euro cheaper but postage was 30 euro more… makes no sense

    either way its more expensive overall then in August as Euro is now stronger than it was 2 months back

    ok, I just check… its 75 euro for the blue one as well now. they must have caught on and realised that 40 euros to ship 7 kg is not profitable for them

  • yep…just went in to buy more and the shipping kinda kills it now.. damn!

  • torn between just biting the bullet at about $320 delivered via amazon.it + buying an adapter locally..or waiting it out for xmas and trying to snag a bargain + a cashback promo.

    Kicking myself for not developing an interest in nespresso in july/august.

  • Ok guys so I did some math and based on current euro - aud conversions and using xe I came up with the following values:


    Base unit
    Delonghi En 520R

    168.81 euro -> 213.63


    Shipping for one 75.01 euro each -> 94.93
    shipping for two 62.61 euro each -> 79.23
    shipping for three 58.34 euro each -> 73.84

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Total price:

    If bought by itself = ~309 AUD SHIPPED
    If bought in two = ~293 AUD SHIPPED (save $16 as opposed to buying 1 by itself)
    If bought in three = ~288 AUD SHIPPED (save $21 as opposed to buying 1 by itself)

    So, I pose this question. If I were to order three of the RED 520s (red because its the cheapest and coincidentally, imo the best looking for any kitchen) would anyone be interested in chipping in? I'm based in Brisbane, Southside so for ease of transaction I'll limit this offer to Brisbane residents.

    Also, for those who haven't looked into these machines, you WILL need to purchase an extra adapter. And from what I've read here and on whirlpool, its effectively no warranty internationally for delonghi products.

    • nevermind. Bought the expressi from aldi.

      Machine + frother + 36 caps for $125.

  • I know. I was about to order a lattissima plus or citiz and cream from my girlfriend, and the price goes up?
    Any other nespresso deals around, on any website?

    • Hey Man, where abouts are you?

      • melbourne

  • Worst choice ever jimothy.. Should have spent more

    • nah its actually quite good..check the whirlpool thread about it, lots of positive feedback. Digging the renzo caps. At under 30c a cap and the flavour isn't half bad. Even aldi caps kick the crap out of the stuff at my local gloria jeans.

      you can just take it back if you dont like it.
