so if i send some comics and mark them as magazines it will not be applicable to the vat?

 

Mark parcels to the UK as 'printed matter' and there is no import duty or VAT, no matter what value you put on the package. (thumbs u

 

Where.

 

 

under detailed description of contents

 

if I put "printed matter" instead of "Batman #227", I'm gonna have a real hard time convincing the USPS to honor an insurance claim if something happens.

 

So....anywhere else?

 

You just need to state Comic Books and then the items to be safe - I had Heritage state this when they sent me my Marvel #1 and there was no customs charge.

My advice to him. Pay your freaking taxes.... stop trying to get around them. You can run but you can't hide.

 

The problem being...comics are zero rated for all duty in the UK. :makepoint:

 

I would think that a Captain Of Industry like yourself, involved in an international comic business, would know this sort of thing? (shrug)

I hope this isnt a slap in the face of our own Andrew.... :jokealert:

Ugh.

 

Now ComicShoofly is sending me PMs, just like his banshee of a wife BellaDummy....one more for the ignore pile.

 

That's right, I said banshee....

 

Banshee you would please not make a mockery of the Irish Banshee..You will be hearing from the Banshee protection league for sullying the species.

I have feelings Nick, some of which are above the belt.

I get sellers to put a low value on packages in order to avoid customs charges.

 

I also send people their sheit when they buy something from me.

It is on, the wife's hoovering though that's probably why I didn't hear it. I'll call you back if you like mate (thumbs u

 

Is that English for Vacuuming the floor or is it really just the wife standing over you?

 

Is a punter in the UK the same as a tire kicker in the US?

Why in GOD's name would I know the tax laws in the UK!!?? I certainly don't expect you to know our tax laws!

 

And Rock, I am glad you are so good at spellings and suchs, I betz it's makes' you feel big n awesome that you can spells these so goods.

 

A comic reader, and a librarian! I bet YORE a hit with the ladies huh. Oh wait, you have 2 dogs, I do see why though, after all they are dumb and ugly blind.

 

 

[Okay this was completely out of line!! As well as your other joking comments about someone elses ears. Not funny low blows.

 

Such ignorance in your post.

 

You are wrong on a lot of counts.

 

RMA is very nice and a fairly attractive young man. Not only have I seen him. Personally I have known him for over 10 years.

 

Even if you look like Brad Pitt, which I highly doubt, your attitude makes you look ugly without seeing your face.

 

He is not only a sweet heart and cutie pie( I am married but not that we didn't flirt ) but he is an interesting conversationalist. He knows a lot about comics and has a lot to say.

 

You keep defending yourself and spewing hate filled rants. Try just talking instead of hawking and being defensive. Make things right rather than waiting on everyone to forget your mistakes.

 

RMA also has a strong sense of right and wrong. Something you obviously lack.

 

I joke w/ RMA a lot but this is only because he has been a friend of mine for so long. Your jokes=not funny.

 

What is wrong with comic readers? Are these not people who buy supplies?

 

I really thought you were pleasant in your PMs to me when you had offered to sell me items. I actually thought you were nice..I figured I am new here I'd give you a chance. I am not by nature a nasty person.

 

I took Flaming telepaths and Skys advice to heart ,but, decided when you PM'd me I'd be open minded and at least hear what you had to offer.

 

Your treatment of my friends has made it hard to be nice to you.

 

This posts shows true colors. I was being pleasant to you before. Now I see Flaming Telepath,Boozad, RMA, and everyone else was absolutely right about you.

 

Not withstanding your past history that has been told and retold on this forum. These comments you made were totally mean spirited. You owe Boozad and RMA apologies as well as all the people you ripped off on this board and everyone you've had such unkind words too. You could just apologize for you, your shills, and Bellawhatever, but you probably won't. You obviously are shameless and have no sense of when you have stepped over the line.

 

Not shipping? Slow Shipping? Taking money and not delivering as promised? I don't know. I wasn't involved with those transactions but I am sure those who were would be glad to give a rundown.

 

They way you interact with people has lost you the chance to ever know me as a customer. Also any of my customers or friends that I could recommend reliable businesses too will never hear about you. Unless they ask my opinion, and then I will have to grimace and suggest they buy elsewhere.

 

I would warn and caution you before you jump me about this post.

 

As I told you I have been working in comic stores since I was a kid. I have a lot of friends. Not only here but a lot of places in the comic book community. A lot of people on this board know me personally and would take offense. So don't get your panties in a wad and start anything you can't finish. Because I really don't want to hear it from you or your shills.

 

I can't ban you. I have no special notify mods repeatedly powers. But I personally can abjure you.

 

I recommend everyone do the same. With the exception of warning people NOT to do business with someone who treats people so shabbily. You cease to exist. You have nothing to offer. You have no business or sales. I hope everyone puts you on Ignore. I wish everyone could.

 

Abjure would mean I know longer acknowledge you. Don't think it means I won't get back up on this soapbox if you mess with me... or my friends.

Didn't think it was possible for you to out-dooche yourself, but there it is.
