Hello,

Yep just bought that package from J&K shipping here to Ireland. The a/c=20
adaptor is the apple 9w model - at least with mine - and will work fine o=
n=20
both 110 and 230. It also shipped with 3 adaptors to handle most a/c sock=
ets.

Package itself was well wrapped and I got everything I asked for. Shippin=
g is=20
a pig but I'm not sure J&K make anything off the back of that. Not sure w=
hat=20
the VAT situation is where you're from but I was also liable to 21% tax=20
payable BEFORE customs on this end would release the parcel!

Overall my experince was good with this company - your other option of co=
urse=20
is to take your chance on Ebay

hope this helps

Stephen
