Mr. Bezos must be rubbing his hands frantically...no more toilet breaks and 24/7/365 shifts :whip2:
There was always VAT on EU purchases if buying new, but not double - i.e. if buying a NEW watch from EU, it will be sold to you sans VAT, and you will pay VAT when it enters the UK. If however you...
As long as you don't plan to take mint watches with boxes, tags and everything, I doubt it could be an issue. I'm certain the truly well-off folks that travel (yacht, private jet) with their precious...
Actually my points was more towards it reducing the flow of cheap tat altogether, some people will think twice before ordering said items. And its also about the formidable waste that occurs when...
Another minor positive aspect for the UK of exiting the EU is that it will drop the VAT-exemption threshold for small value items, currently set at between 15-25 EUR equivalent for all EU countries,...
Anything with posting date on or after 1st January 2021.
In some Christian Orthodox countries like the one I grew up in, fish is actually seen as a sort if in between, there's days of fast when meat or dairy is not allowed yet fish or seafood is...
Exactly. And whereas with a car you can claim it back once you are exporting the car, with something like an expensive watch it would only work if the watch is specifically bought with intent to...
It would not matter whether its B2C or private sale, the same rules for importing things and limits on doing so would apply. To give an example, should you buy a product XYZ worth 1000 from a...
Never worked like that. EU was/is seen as a single country in terms of buying something, so besides paying for the shipping, there was nothing else to pay.
As I said above, at best UK will be in...
Indeed, never thought about that but yes you are. It should open a whole new world for "contraband" stuff, aka "smuggling in" stuff from the EU to the UK :excitement:
Oh yes, absolutely this is a minor side-effect that nobody should care about that much. And yes, when it comes to VAT it is still quite a mess, because as you said, VAT is always paid in the original...
Oh yes, I know that but you're talking mainly for businesses and the like. For the personal purchases once they start charging VAT and what have you, don't believe there's a way to go back, same as...
I’ve happily spent many a hours browsing the Sales Corner here, most often simply window shopping and using it as a sort of way of discovering many great watches I never knew about, which has been...
Where you headed? :nevreness:
That’s great news, had no idea and glad to see Seiko keeping up with Swatch. Indeed this opens a whole new can of worms for me in terms of choices.
This is my latest obsession of sorts, I fell in love with long power reserve movements after buying a B&M 5 days as well as a Tissot 80hr (sold that soon after as I felt dial was boring), followed by...
Fooled me once...fooled me twice...
eBay is a huge mess nowadays
Thanks, might give it a try!
Have you managed to find any online seller having these? I have a B&M that came with a curved leather strap/curved quick-release spring-bars but not a color I love a lot, so I already bought a couple...
Ditto. If the movt. does not bring any improvements in accuracy or PR or otherwise, I feel its just paying extra money for just a name, not my cup of tea.
On the other side of the fence, and without...
I guess it depends on the features. I am a sucker for long PR and ETA doesn't really make long PR at least not in the same quality of finish, higher-beat etc. (I have a Powermatic 80 movt. watch and...
