You will have VAT and duty added on as normal and the iirc £12 handling fee to pay to the royal mail

is this above a set amount?, it use to be below 15 quid for the item and there was nothing to pay, but i think that 15 quid low value item allowance has gone now?

why are you so happy, youl have to pay it also when you buy stuff and it all comes from china, one way or another your now paying 20% vat on anything from abroad, and we all got past this on low value items, now we pay it on everything,
and its looking like customs are kicking in hard now aslo

right ive talked to ebay , and anything we buy from outside the uk will now have 20% extra added to it, upto 135 pounds, after 135 pounds we still pay it but it will be taked at the point of customs and not the seller,
im pretty sure im right about the vat after 135 pounds,
and im defo right about having to pay 20% on everything from outside the uk
for eg my 2.97 method feeders are now 3.50

I'm surprised. I can understand the government making charges for goods coming from the EU over a certain amount as this already happens to worldwide countries. What I can't understand is how ebay is dealing with it as goods under a certain value (say £18?) are not subjected to charges so looks like they want to make 20% profit out of nothing.
I look forwards to an email from ebay explaining

"how ebay is dealing with it as goods under a certain value (say £18?) are not subjected to charges so looks like they want to make 20% profit out of nothing".
they defo add it without choice to the seller, to stop any of that marking it as a gift, etc, they give the seller no choice,
and you cant avoid it, it only shows it when you go to pay and not the listing page
because it is subjected, we all have to pay it now,

This applies to China?
If so what reason do they give as low value gifts should be exempt , nothing in Brexit should've changed that

Most goods are subject to 20% vat already it all depends on if they pass that cost onto you the end user or not.
They are not/should not be going to charge it twice.
Your 2.97 method feeders will probably still cost you 2.97 just buy from a different named seller even though it will be the same seller....
