 Hi Dan,
I recently bought parts from Racestorations in the UK.=C2=A0 Your $500 purc=
hase will cost 1.34 times more in the exchange rate.=C2=A0$670. The shippin=
g costs are not to bad, depending on weight $50-75.=C2=A0 The tariff is 20%=
, another $134 collected by the shipping company.=C2=A0 Estimate $800+.=C2=
=A0 Ouch!
There seems to be no way around the tariff.=C2=A0 Most Europeans pay a VAT =
Value Added Tax of 17.8%.I have friends in the UK and we have discussed alt=
ernative plans.=C2=A0 Further, the Country of Origin for the parts is the r=
ate that you pay.=C2=A0 If you buy parts shipped from the UK but Made in Ch=
ina.=C2=A0 You pay China Tariff.=C2=A0=C2=A0
Good Luck.
