Mine arrived today at 10:29am, one day early! Super excited, will be setting it up later as I can no longer justify skiving off of anymore work ;(.

As a quick side note, I'll be moving to college accomodation in a few weeks, by using the packaging that it was delivered to me (including the internal packing), I should be okay? I am a really careful person in general anyway, more so looking for any "Oh no don't do that because ...." which might be something I never thought of.

Woohoo! Can't wait for this evening!

Yeah shift it in the packaging it came in mate, I'd recommend keeping that stuff if possible can be really helpful if for any reason you need to send it anywhere

Does anyone know how long things are taking to be delivered to the republic of Ireland. It says two days but I really doubt that.

I've merged your post here, as you can see, FedEx are one of the only companies currently doing European deliveries due to the ongoing customs issues related to brexit. As such it takes around a week to get to ROI, you'll find it gets stuck at customs as they're clearing a huge backlog.

Well I seem to be having the same issue. The Fedex hub is 20 minutes away from my home but I can not get a number to call them as that hub states that they are closed 24/7 ?. I rang PCS regarding the delay due to required import clearance instructions and to be fair a lovely lad stated that he would forward the clearance instructions via a manager and all seemed good. I just can't stand that I have not gotten a tracking update in 4 days. I understand the mess brexit has caused but I need to have some idea as to when it may be dispatched for delivery so I can arrange for someone to be there if I can not. It is not impatience on my part, just a wish for some info from fedex to allow me to have someone there to sign for the package!. Fierce frustrating to be honest!.

Fed Ex are still in bad way mate, it'll probably sit there for a week before moving. It's super frustrating I know

As @Steveyg says, this is perfectly normal I'm afraid, they have a massive backlog so it tends to sit there for a week before you get a delivery window.
