Can't Find VAT Invoices for my eBay purchases | Seller Central

Hi guys, looking for a bit of help..Recently registered for VAT so this is pretty new to me.Am I missing something or is there no simple way to get a VAT receipt for my eBay purchases?!I've just gone to my purchase history expecting to be able to simply go onto 'order details' and print off a nice receipt showing what VAT I paid but nope - no such luck. The order page doesn't show what VAT I was charged.All of my purchases are from VAT registered businesses. They have their VAT number displayed on their eBay listings. Why on earth doesn't the order info page show the VAT?I've scrolled down about 20 of my last purchases and ONE has the option 'view invoice' and shows the VAT.Do I really have to now start chasing sellers for a VAT invoice for everything I purchase? is this the norm or am I being daft here?I get some sellers include an invoice in with my package and that's great.. but some don't. Some promptly respond to requests for an invoice.. some don't. I just hope that being VAT registered doesn't now mean that I'm going to be spending my time chasing people for invoices.
