****ing fuming lads. Even though my Han cast was written down as hand made sculpture and had the VAT number for that at 5% they still charged me for 20%. Absolute whores! I ****ing hate this country sometimes, and i also hate putting cash into the ****ing monarchys pockets. Never liked the ****ing monarchy anyway.

Royal Mail and Parcelforce are absolute cunts aswell. Not only do they not give a **** about ANYONES items / parcels they skim money off the top aswell. CUNTS

Already did mate. Have to pay and then get a refund using some B1 form or something.

They charged you 20% to punish you for always posting in the vintage toy section :D

But if there's an award for best thread title for 2015 you get my vote :lol:

This time of year they (customs) nab everything they can. Just the other day I had to pay £1.08 VAT then the £8 something parcelforce charge. That's just plain mean in my book.

Robbing bastards. The culture of people cocking up/not knowing their job really pisses me off, and to make it even worse you have to go through hoops to put their cock ups right. I'm fully expecting to get stung in the next couple of weeks too.

Glad to hear I wasn't the only one expecting something very different after reading the title of the post though.... Mmmm, those customs uniforms! :lol:

I wonder...... Can you/we charge them an "admin fee" for our time filling in the form to claim back after their mistake? If it was the other way round we'd get hit with an extra charge. Fair's fair.

Any legal eagles on the boards?

Their's a bloke who charged a PPI company for his time, he was fed up with the company cold calling him so he told them to stop and if they didn't he would charge them £10 a minute. Check the link out. :wink:

Makes me not want to buy or sell any more. Been back in the collecting game less than a year and I've experienced it all. 2 MOCs from the US being damaged on their way here. Being charged import fees for 2 MOCs from the US even though it went through the GSP. The most recent thing is a graded figure busting out of the bubble I posted, so had to give a full refund.

I know this is off the starwars topic but what is the law for anything else you buy from the states if it is new or second hand? If posted do you always have to pay fees. A few on here said if you post to Ireland there is no extra fees on top of postage. Does anyone know if this is true?

I am sure that some of these deviants have searched for worse!

Does go to show what is readily available now though - bloody shocking considering what we had available as young lads - I remember wearing out the pause button on the video just to get a glimpse of Glen Closes's boobies and Sharon Stone's snatch!
