https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Buying/just-bought-on-eBay-and-I-saw-suddenly-a-UK-VAT-added-to-price/m-p/6869659#M14690 <P>Hi, I purchased 2 x coins from China, total cost £3.50 -- when on PayPal page vat was added, I did not pay and tried to cancel the order - only the seller can cancell, I now have "non payment" strike pending on my 100% feedback.</P><P>I telephoned HMRC direct and they confirmed that items costing £15 or less from China are NOT LIABLE TO VAT.</P><P>on the seller page it clearly quotes "vat is included in the cost of the item"&nbsp; contacted eBay a number of times they say there is nothing they can do !! Seller has stopped comunicating with me - This has a big impact on buying on eBay in future !!!! I think Amazon will be doing much better than eBay in future, and there refund policy puts eBay to shame !</P><P>Goodbye eBay !</P> Fri, 05 Feb 2021 17:50:57 GMT jadie13910 2021-02-05T17:50:57Z
