May have hit a small snag here.
Had a look through the HMRC website, and things are as clear as mud...
Mikey the seller is presumably not asking you to pay anything additional to him and only informing you there may be duties payable on bringing into the UK.
I interpret this to mean nada, nish, nyet duty or tax will be due on anything bought and shipped within the EU and in special EU territories goods worth less than £15 are also exempt. As someone else said even if that's wrong any duty won't be a killer and we can't get these babies in the UK. A meringue a meright?
Quote:
All other goods
If you're ordering or sending purchased goods (other than alcohol and tobacco) to the UK from another EU country then it's just like shopping in the UK:
there is no Customs Duty payable
there is no import VAT payable, unless you're ordering or sending purchased goods from one of the EU 'Special Territories' and if the value of the goods is £15 or more, however from 1 April 2012 all merchandise sent to the UK from the Channel Islands is subject to VAT - see below
there is no Excise Duty to pay

Germany isn't a special territory under the HMRC rules, so no import duty or issue with a £15 limit etc.
Maybe the seller's just being cautious 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

A bit confused by the whole thing, but as said, there should be no duties from Germany, according to the above link.
Also says due to tax regulations in Germany, he can't take the whole payment in 1 go, it will have to be split into 3 or 4 payments, and the same shipments My D3 Build Thread
