The photo books are very sturdy and look great. Theyre a much better way to display your memories rather than just printing bundles of photos which get mixed up and mislaid. The only annoying part is... See more

Excellent Quality That Impresses Every Time

PhotoBox has never disappointed me. I've ordered several photo books from PhotoBox.ie, and every experience has been excellent. The print quality is outstanding, with sharp images, vibrant colors, and a professional finish. Each order arrived on time and was carefully packaged.
The photo books have received many compliments from my friends and family, who were impressed by the final result. I'm very happy with the service and will definitely continue using PhotoBox for future photo projects. Highly recommended!

The photobook

The photobook turned out lovely. I was very pleased overall.
However I didn't edit out a small text box with a sample date as I didn't see it on the cover. The system should have alerted me to the fact that it was still there. Also, I had enlarged some photos before uploading and they were slightly blurry in the book. It would be good to be prompted to this fact before final submission. However, both errors were my own and the finished product looked lovely.

As I never received my photograph

As I never received my photograph, all I can say is that I’m very disappointed. I also paid €7 for postage and delivery. An Post refused to deliver my little photo as they estimated I owed Revenue unpaid duty on it🤔🤔

Irish (or other EU) buyers beware.... good pics but will cost you.

The product itself is great however .... it was clear when I was ordering where I was ordering from, what was not clear was that there would be significant customs fees and a handling charge from An Post for having to collect those fees. That both delayed the order and added significantly to the cost.
My attempted follow up with your customer service yielded nothing by way of a satisfactory response.
The lack of transparency on the pricing and perhaps lack of a cleaner way of handling them are my main issues.
Great product, happy to recommend to anyone in UK but not beyond and customer service not responsive.

Excellent quality

Excellent quality, really quick turnaround and delivery.

Not really a .ie

Selling prints on a .ie.
Emails coming from a .ie.
Charging 23% VAT.

No where on the website does it say you will be charged an additional import fee.

And please don’t tell people to go to your chat bot, that will get nowhere.

Have been using Photobox since 2009. Time to find new service.

Order 12 photos for my daughter’s first…

Order 12 photos for my daughter’s first birthday from Photobox IE, IE being Ireland. Web address indicating an Irish site. Paid €10.99 for them with delivery and wondering why on earth they are delayed, I checked the tracking to see it’s stuck at customs with an almost €9 customs charge waiting… just about the cost of the photos itself. They now won’t be here ontime as there was no communication from anyone to say the order was delayed. Super disappointed and sadly won’t be back as it’s clearly not an Irish site. How can you call yourselves Photobox Ireland and not be Irish?
