I was expecting a list similar to-: 1: drop trousers and pants. 2: bend over and prepare yourself! 3: collect your now overpriced goods.
dont forget that the robbing b.stards at royal mail will charge you a"customs handling fee" if they see your parcel.
i dont bother any more as my last parcel got here from dubai twice as quick as it took fron coventry to aylesbury about 60 miles
Yes just bought a seat cowl and a few other bits from America. Parcel Force Fee £8 + £25 VAT charge. Still a good saving on buying in UK though
Unfortunately the UK is burdened with 20% VAT it's no wonder you can buy cheaper from abroad, but don't be surprised when all your local suppliers have gone.
Yes but even with paying the VAT @ 20% on the imported parts they are still cheaper. Honda parts list prices must be a lot cheaper in the US. e.g. a Chain Rivet link which is £11 over here was around £3, the seat cowl was $130 ish, they are £194 here.
Its the same with software. Adobe charge more for digital downloaded software if you're in the UK and Australia than it does if you're in the USA. There's an interesting press conference in OZ where the journalists are asking why and the CEO Was squirming and not giving direct answers.
