Flippin eck mate, that's very steep :eek:
Good luck for tomorrow BTW :)
company website says “includes free international delivery”
I’ve emailed him back with tracking info from FedEx, see what he comes back with.
I know it’s at our end, but maybe honour the free delivery and pay the fees?
here’s hoping.
and
Cheers Brian :thumbsup:
Welcome to the sunlit uplands mate. ☹️
the vast majority of it will be VAT which you would have paid anyway.
The only extra will be the duty (probably 3%), VAT on the shipping charges and the clearance charge (£12 or £18).
You could have bought a power supply in the UK, it's just a traffo and some caps in a box when all's said and done.
I stopped buying anything from Europe a year or so ago when I got my fingers burnt with some bullshit charges. Every EU country now has its own rules and regulations and you can be hit with an array of bollocks from customs charges, VAT, shipping etc and probably other red tape crap if you try and import some items.
Well you could have sourced it from the UK and kept people here employed. :rolleyes:
New vat and import rules are nothing to do with Brexit, they were coming in anyway.
