As an Irishman who goes back regularly, I'd say there are no special risks beyond the normal ones any seller takes in shipping. Be sure to pack well and use a reliable method for collecting payment. It is certainly no more difficult than shipping to any other part of the EU and probably a lot simpler than some other places. I don't care for the joke about the IRA but I'm sure no insult was intended.
