    Brexit, for once some facts.

    they run down the clock, then present a motion to extend A50 which will, in all probability, get support from the majority. The government has to ask the EU27 for an extension. No deal is not realistic. In order for No Deal to win, No-Dealers have to convince the DUP first to say that they will...

    EBMA files an anti dumping complaint on chinese e-bikes.

    as I said before, they put $20 on the invoice. You pay nothing to the postman. Some do the same on a bigger scale. A container from China filled with instant noodles looks nortmal with $10,000 invoice. You can pack 1,000 BBSHD kits in less space - imagine you get invoiced for $20 each.

    they do that by a motion to extend A50. The government will have to act on that.

    the forum is full of posts telling you where to get the stuff without paying duty and VAT. After brexit, stuff coming over from the EU27 will be treated similarly as coming from the USA. The number of cheats will be greatly reduced.

    yes, I do. In this example above, £43.68. my £43.68 goes to pay for pre-sale and after sale support cost. The problem is some of my Chinese competitors don't even pay much on import duty, premises, admin cost and support cost. They can afford to sell the same product for £349 and still beat me...

    you've got it all wrong, AKW. Let's take an example. I pay $250 for a hypothetical kit + $10 delivery. After delivery to my door, the kit costs me: 1.05*(250+10)1.20 USD ex VAT The 1.05 is the import duty. The 1.20 is VAT. Total: $328 or £262.08 If I want to sell on Ebay, I have to sell it at...

    no, not after the transition period, even if we have a Norway+ deal. Once the UK leaves the EU (after the transition), it leaves the common VAT area, if you sell a bike to a Frenchman, you can't charge VAT. Your Frenchman customer will pay French VAT. That will be a level playing field. These...

    KudosDave is the expert. I bet he must feel the same as I do. The threshold for compulsory VAT registration is £85,000. These guys don't have to charge VAT when their turnover is under the threshold. They just keep their sales under the threshold or worse, don't even declare. Nobody checks...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the more those two try to hold TM to No Deal brexit, the more likely parliament is going to ask for A50 extension at the 11th hour. The next Meaningful vote on brexit is 21 January. To enable brexit on the 29th March, parliament needs to pass 4 large bills and enable 800 statutory instruments...

    My Chinese competitors like PSWPower are setting up in Germany or Czechoslovakia. They ship Chinese e-bikes and kits into the UK without charging VAT on Amazon, Ebay and online sales. Brexit will eliminate this unfair competition because their customers will have to pay customs declaration and VAT.

    BBC QT. I was distracted by Diane Abbott waving finger. She spoke so slowly that I forgot the beginning of her sentence by the time she finished it. Rory Stewart came through well. Stewart implies that a deal with Labour is possible.
