The price of the PRS-505 in Ireland is €249.00
In the UK, it is £199.00. You can use the following to do a quick currency comparision:

In short, FNAC are being hungry buggers in asking €299 for the 505. Anyone coming to Ireland (maybe to see Montauban or Clermont Auvergne play Munster) or to the UK could buy a 505 for €50 cheaper than at home.
