I have a question about a Wii Play now
I'm just about to order one from Amazon.de - and there's a bit above my basket saying something about VAT - is it already added or will i be charged more when it comes through customs??

If it's a consumer transaction, it should include German VAT. If that's the case, there are no more VAT or excise charges when it arrives in the UK. Consumers buying from other EU countries should always be able to import without HMRC getting involved.

I don't remember anybody saying anything about it in the thread but i thought i'd better check before i hit "bestellen abschicken"

Your total should be 51 and a bit euro that is the all inclusive price nothing to add in UK as there is a free trade between european countries however german vat is 19%

They will ship games and accessories just not the Wii itself

is it cheaper than trying to get it from ebay, as i want wii play

It's coming back at 51.92 euros which is £37.30 including P&P - don't know how much they are on eBay, i am just doing as Bloke tells me. He says Play is going for silly money on eBay and he doesn't want to risk not getting one for a decent price
Hope this helps

Thankyou everyone for your advice re. VAT, much appreciated, and i forgot to say thankyou too for all your support this afternoon during my mini-crisis!
So, THANKYOU!!

The ebay madness continues..... No extras and a bundle would of been cheaper with free postage from game!
