Fw: The great Sonos revoloution

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I can see he's an eBay shop. If he pays the import duty and VAT
that=20
really is impressive - that's another 25% of the price at least on top
of=20
that.=20

Just seems too perfect really. I'm assuming then he completes a special=20
declaration that says "hit me with all UK charges". And would
HM&CE start=20
chasing a non-UK citizen for payment ?

Gareth,

I think you're missing the point? Although it's ebay its not an auction,=20
its
an E Bay shop. He sells at a fixed price, it the "buy it now"
price. He
doesnt have just one of them. His advert clearly states he will pay all
import duty and VAT. If you click on his name you will see in excess of
=A33000 satisfied customers from all over the world. You can contact
them=20
and
ask them how the transaction went, or just rely on the comments they have
already made on the site.

His price is higher than that on the Sonos Site, but then again, can you=20
get
them any cheaper?
