Simon, it's worth checking to see if it's less expensive to buy from QRPproject in Germany (Elecraft's European distributor). http://www.qrpproject.de/UK/indexuk.html Because it's in the Eu, the VAT is included in the price and you don't have to pay the incoming carrier VAT or a (large!!) handling fee for the privilege of taking the VAT off you.

Consensus is Yes you pay VAT No you don't pay import duty UPS is better if you can afford it Ta Simon 2E0SCF ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
