    1 £0.70
    Ready to deliver



    It was signed by

    Kind regards

    I've cancelled my order - I ordered 2, but was stung for £1.10 on the VAT. That's worse than fleabay!!! LOL :rotfl:

    sounds about right.

    cost total = £6.39
    VAT = 17.5% so about £1.10 (give or take a few pennies)

    We pay VAT on everything in the UK apart from essentials (ie basic foods, kids shoes, etc.)

    I'm not sure how I found my way in to this offer, and don't expect it will be honoured (but it was worth a try! lol) but thank you to the OP :) or should that be :j ? ;)

    I've ordered one too - likelihood of it arriving - not much!!! But it was worth a try. No wonder they're going into liquidation!!
