GT3_richy Posted November 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Mines showing as due Monday as well, but was at Stanstead @ 11pm yesterday, so may still attract duty/vat; I've had 4 Autotricklers from Adam and been stung every time so not expecting to clear HMRC without a bill, but there's always a first time I guess 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon2712 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 I’ve had mine 10 days now. Love it. First Autotrickler I’ve had so nothing to compare against but so far so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-NZ Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 I must be getting close to the top of the waiting list but doubt I'll have it before Xmas. Those videos F-Class John put up about assembling it, etc are very useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon2712 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Yep, I had a v3 order from 8th Jan, converted to the v4 the day he announced it. My v3 was due to be shipped the following day. I should have had it 3 weeks ago but I ordered a shotmarker that he had a few issues with. I was charged £82 import duty on the two things.

John MH Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 I’m surprised I’ve not yet had notification of any Duty and VAT Charges yet as it’s due to be delivered tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJC Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 Mine is in its way. Did customs duty rules change with the seller now being responsible for duty/it has to be paid before shipping ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJC Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 I’m not very up on this but one US firearms dealer mentioned this extra burden as a reason for them no longer selling into the U.K. not sure he interpreted the rules correctly but that’s what he told me. For goods sent from overseas and sold directly to UK consumers without OMP involvement, the overseas seller will be required to register and account for the VAT to HMRC. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/changes-to-vat-treatment-of-overseas-goods-sold-to-customers-from-1-january-2021/changes-to-vat-treatment-of-overseas-goods-sold-to-customers-from-1-january-2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 That's for "consignments not exceeding £135" which basically means cheap purchases need to have vat paid up front so they don't get caught by customs and charged vat and handling fee. Anything above that and there's no change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
