Why should the government (in other words the taxpayer) have to compensate people? Things have changed and businesses have to adapt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Sending some PC parts to my pal in Germany - he'll be charged 15% of the value in import duty on delivery. We both agree that this is a benefit of Brexit, making shipping more reassuringly expensive. Considered marking up the value just to make the most of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's the carrier? I paid the best part of £50 to send mine door-to-door with DHL insured. Their tracker says 3 days tops, we'll see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew they were German but thought they had set up a place in UK, hence the name. Told them to stick it up their arse waiting on a response. just looked up the number, it's a nigerian scam.

I need a new monitor and all the decent 1440p monitors appear to be sold out or stupidly expensive in the UK. I spotted a good deal on Amazon FR but looking it up, you'd add 14% in third country tariff, then 20% VAT on top of the total of the item+14%, plus shipping costs. Meaning buying clothes/electronics/whatever from the EU has really become around 40% more expensive overnight. It's a b*****d. Also I might still be a bit cheaper even with all that pish added on to get what I was after from France anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably like the majority of the public being an odd time buyer from mainland Europe. The whole Brexit nonsense has everyone out the loop.I bought a good set of headphone on Amazon EU, they arived within 2 days, no problems. So I still struggle with the where,when and how and at what price. How did these c***s get my order details? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
