Hi Tim.

Is there any likelihood that you will add the MB-6582 boards to the "EU Low value order page" ?

At a price of $20 their value would be below the £18 threshold that HMRC have set to qualify for Import Duty and VAT relief. I'm not sure if this would exceed the maximum size for flat packages but could save me quite a bit as I always seem to get hit for Duty/VAT.

Yes it looks like I might finally be thinking about building something with a SID in it :)

Cheers

Phil

Short answer: for the UK order from the main order page. For a Baseboard only airmail order to the UK it gives the same price the low value page would.

Long answer:
For most countries the 6582 and Core32 boards won't be available on the low value order pages, unless the exchange rate goes far enough in the buyer's favor to stay under the no tax limit.....whether the country in question taxes 'landed cost' (total price for contents + shipping + transaction fees) or taxes value of contents only is a big part of the equation. Like the other tax rules this info can be very hard to find for a non-resident, so I don't have that info.

Airmail from US to UK has been solid and reliable, so my main store page has some exception logic written in for the UK. If you buy a single baseboard and choose UK-Airmail for the destination it will give you the right price/same as a low value page would. A ready to mail flat containing only a 6582 Base board weighs in just over 12oz, putting it in the 12oz to 16oz rate class.

To everyone: if you have links to the 'is shipping cost and insurance taxable' rule for your country please post it in this thread or in a private message.....I have no problem with building more customized pages to make the most of the different rule sets.

Best regards

Tim
