Years later, I’m considering buying an item from the USA and I’m running into VATand various taxes, which I also see when making an offer.Specifically Price: US $103.70 (AboutEUR 96.51) Shipping: US $58.02 (about EUR 54.00) eBay International Shipping No additional import charges at deliveryso in this case the total is $161.72 with no other charges (VAT, customs....), correct?If I try to make an offer I end up with Buy It Now price: US $85.00 + US $18.70 VAT (about EUR 96.51) Your offer (does not include shipping or VAT)and here I have some doubts...... if I want to make an offer of $90 against the original price of $103.70what should I enter? Before you used to just put $90 and that was it, whereas now it seems you have to enter the amount excluding VAT ($74) to which eBay then applies 22% ($16.28) so as to arrive at the actual amount of my offer, is that right?(so the seller puts the item at $85 and then eBay applies 22% and shows the total of $103.70?) In another case Price: US $225.70 (AboutEUR 210.06) Shipping: US $38.55 (about EUR 35.88) eBay International Shipping Customs duties: US $9.78 (about EUR 9.10) - Estimate, final price at checkoutso the total will be $274.03 (or higher if the customs estimate is wrong, if I’m not mistaken in this case the duty is paid because the value of item+shipping is higher than €150), right? Or are there other charges to add? Thanks.
