ADVICE NEEDED ON WEBSITE

My other half is after a Spanish football shirt and found one on http://www.soccer-spain.com/ssshop/shopwindow.html
I'm not sure about buying from it, has anyone any experience of this website? Does it look o.k? Any advice appreciated! ??? ??? ??? ???

I have ordered goods from abroad before. When it was allowed I used to order cigarettes, this website checks out more than the ciggy site I used to use.

Duty is payable on imports where the value exceed £18.00 so is worth bearing in mind before placing an order.

The company list it's address etc, you could also telephone them to ask some questions about the goods you wish to order, this should dampen any suspicions you might have.

Please let us know how you get on!! ;D

Thanks Tony H do you know how much approx import duty would be on £40 pounds worth of goods?

HM Customs & Excise Click Here will provide you with the information you need, it look's as if only VAT will be payable on your goods. If you think more will be payable you can search the commodity in the database and get the relevant code, you then have to telephone an 0845 number in order to be given the % duty rate.

Hope this helps

I've ordered two football shirts. Did it last night and they've been sent today.
They say they will arrive tomorrow, if they do will be very impressed! Will let you know

Sorry bit slow in reporting outcome, arrived two days later with no extras to pay! You wouldn't get that quick service in UK!
