international postage

[classic_sumo]

Hi,

I won an item from Europe, on the item description postage is 25.20 Euros, when i try to pay the postage jumps to 43.20 Euros, why is this and surely I am not liable for the extra.

many thanks

Sold price P&P from non UK is liable to 20% VAT,

also actual cost won't be known until you pay & exchange rate is applied.

Failure to pay import fees also invalidates MBG.
