<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 4718453, member: 110350"]Lucernae, a VCoins dealer in Spain from whom I've made purchases several times, has, within the last week or two, added the following to its description of every coin:</p><p><br /></p><p> "Shipments to destinations outside of Spain (both in the EU and in third countries) are subject to export licensing, but only those from third countries will be charged at a rate of 5%.</p><p><br /></p><p>Shipments are likely to be subject to delays depending on administrative timelines derived from the application for the export permit process."</p><p><br /></p><p>So obviously there has, in fact, been a recent change in the enforcement of the export license requirement. Plus the 5% export tax charged to buyers outside the EU. A dealer like Lucernae is hardly likely to have started enforcing these requirements voluntarily. It's really too bad, because every time I've ordered a coin from Lucernae they've sent it to me in New York via DHL Express, and it's arrived within a few days. Who knows how long it will take now that an export license has to be applied for each time? Hopefully something short of forever! Never mind the extra cost.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
