Not quite the complete picture. Add shipping and then calculate the VAT and import duty on that figure.

 

Bottom line is anything bought in the EU from the UK is now 25% more expensive than market value and vice-versa.

I'd go closer to 30%. 

 

Paying VAT on second hand goods is aboute bollo#*s!  😡

Don't forget you have to pay VAT on the shipping too! Adds a nice little extra kick in the teeth to the whole equation.

It would work well with Ricki's.

It’s probably the solution, irrespective of how many were sent I think it would be an Arsene Wenger case of “I didn’t see them”.
