[QUOTE="akeady, post: 5202098, member: 83175"]The rates are high - currently VAT is 21% and it will revert to its previous value of 23% at the end of Feb. 2021. They either charge it or they ignore the package. In principle, they charge it above some amount, but often don't seem to bother. Most of the time on coins from the U.S., I've paid nothing, the other times I've had to pay. Since CNG has been routing coins through London, I've paid 5% on any coins from them. I've never bought any coins from Australia, as it happens. In principle, they will charge 23% on goods from the UK assuming the UK is out of the Customs Union on 1st January - as you say, UK VAT will be subtracted, but this is only charged on the buyer's premium in the case of auctioned coins, while the 23% will be on the whole amount. MayI be the first to suggest that the London-based auction houses move to Dublin :) ATB, Aidan.[/QUOTE]
