I think the discussion about the headline is a bit pea counting, seen much worser descriptions here and no one reacted.
Might have been better when he posted to say will stop, but again, pea counting since it is now reality. To me also means stopping not ending, a big difference even it sounds the same, but anyway, since this morning it is reality we have to face for the next time and i`m thankfull he posted this cause i don`t look each day every shop to see if something happens and so i could put out an order yesterday which hopefully will arrive before any problem appears, so a big thank you Inu!

I'm waiting until next year before ordering anything from Britain as I'm unsure how things will end up with the VAT.
If a parcel is shipped this year British VAT has been payed but if the parcel don't arrive until next year what will happen then?
Must I pay Swedish VAT for the parcel as it comes from a non EU state on top of the British VAT already payed, or will it count as an EU buy as it was made before 2021. I will not take a chance.
Not sure if the 1.1. will be a changing date, but finaly if the worst case is on, it means the same like buying in the us or any other area outside EU.
That causes problems every time!
From outside EU means for us in germany for example, you have to pay custom fee on the total of items plus shipping costs, with no tax in the country the EU inside typical tax comes on, germany with 19% close the same like the 20 in britain, but belgium for example has a tax of 23%, so finaly in any way the price will rise! Realy bad!!
Also it means for me, the pakage is no more delievered to my home, i have to move to the custom office to pay for it and pick it up, that`s realy bad cause it means i have to take half day holiday to do so, super boring!
I hope they figure the deal out soon, as far as i heard the problem is about fishing licence, yeah realy fishing!
EU fishers should be no more allowed to fish close to britain but the EU wants this, what a f#cking crazy world!!
