OFF TOPIC SHIPPING LAB KIT FROM U.S. TO U.K. [7:26987]
Folks, I was wondering if any one in the U.K. has bought any cisco kit for Lab purposes from the states and had it shipped down here? I want to find out what happens at this end with customs.

Micheal I've not exactly had the same experience but I've had equipment shipped before from the US where EU duty had to be paid before customs would release it, the goods were purchased for the company's own use. I had this in Holland and Germany and customs won't release it until they get the funds in their bank or a cheque in hand, hope this helps cheers Pat Michael Ibidunni wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

I bought a 3620 from the states. The seller declared it as worth #1200, I got a nice #250 odd VAT bill. I have bought lots of other stuff, and not had to pay VAT, but nothing that expensive. There must be a value threshold. Best to call the UK Customs I think, or be prepared to pay VAT on top.

RE: OFF TOPIC SHIPPING LAB KIT FROM U.S. TO U.K. [7:26987]
It very much depends on the how C E are feeling that day, when you parcel arrives in the UK. If they check and find you owe VAT then you name address details are logged and you get every time a parcel arrives. If they don't check then you might get away with it. The only exception is if you are transferring goods within the company that owns the goods from one country to another in which case VAT is not chargeable. Basically be prepared to pay 17.5% extra.

Its not threshold value, its luck of the draw, having worked in and with people in that rae, its very much of a case of how heavby is the parcel, is the recipient known to us and that kind of thing. The only rule they have is omnce we find you we keep looking for you as a soft target. Symon Thurlow wrote: I bought a 3620 from the states.

Hmmm, I may be confusing duty with VAT, it was a while ago... at least 2 months :) Symon --- I bought a 3620 from the states. The seller declared it as worth #1200, I got a nice #250 odd VAT bill.
