Irish Heritage Card

Does anyone know if I can make reservations in advance online with the Irish Heritage Card, but not buy the card until I am actually in Ireland.

On the website, it looks like if I buy the Irish Heritage card in advance, I need to do so pretty far in advance to allow from time to ship from Ireland to the US. I saw another post where someone reported it took 21 days from the time the card was ordered to the time it arrived.

For some sites, it's best to make reservations in advance on the website as soon as they are open. From what I can tell, you arrive at your timeslot and have to show your Irish Heritage Card at that time. So it seems like it would be okay to make the reservation stating that you have the Irish Heritgage Card, then purchase it upon arriving in Ireland so you can present it when you show up for your online reservation.

Has anyone done this?

Yes I made reservations indicating the Heritage card but was not asked for any more information. We booked four tours in advance each had a different date for reservations being opened up.
