VAT on GuitarFetish order ?

Red Sleeping Beauty · 10-07-2009 12:55PM #1

Has anyone who's ordered parts from GuitarFetish had to pay VAT on it ? I think he posts with USPS which comes in through An Post. I only got a pickup, a bridge and a few other bits.

Depends on who's dealing with the order really, sometimes they will mark the value on the box as less then 50 euro or claim it to be second hand as they have done with a few of my orders. Didn't have to pay a penny!

You wouldn't be discussing methods of tax evasion, now would you lads?

Not methods, just discussing the finer points of postal delivery, nothing to see here :pac:

No, I'm just asking if GFS orders that are shipped with USPS and handled by An Post (I think) have been stopped by customs or have VAT charges attached to them.

I have never ordered enough off them to warrant charges but every order I recieved was marked with the correct value of the order so yes theres a good chance you may be charged.
