Hello everyone.I bought an item from a UK seller a few days ago. Yesterday I wrote a message to the seller to ask when my shipment would be sent. Today he replied that I cannot have my package shipped until I agree to pay VAT and CUSTOMS DUTIES. I have a few questions:1) is the VAT I have to pay the Italian one? So, 22%?2) how much are the Customs Duties? I spent a little over € 300;3) how do I “agree to pay”?4) how do I pay? Sorry, but I’ve never found myself in a situation like this.
