hej guys!
Is there anyone from the UK? Just waiting form my Mandala and wonder
how much tax charge I'll need to pay...
I've found on HM Revenue that gonna be 2,5% (the price is below 290
pounds), but I just wanna be sure and have some cash in door..

btw.... how long it takes to release my package from there?! I can't
wait ;]

hi there,

i got my mandala 0.1 from america which ended up once converted
(including postage) costing around £600.00.
them C*CKS at customs ended up charging me 17.5% on that, along with a
£7.00 handling charge.

if they do charge you (which i dont think they will because of the
price) and you decide you want another, try www.edrumonline.co.uk.
they delivered my mandala 2.0 in 4 days!

In the end... I had £60 of charge
- £37 of VAT 
-£9 of import duty
-and £12 for a f***n Parcel Force

So the price for Mandala 2.0 in the UK is:
349$= £218
80$= £50
       +£60
------------------
         ~£330



... and I've waited for delivery almost 3 weeks, sweet, isn't it?

PS
Watch out!
Don't try to unscrew this rack holder till the end because You wil havel a BIG problem to set it up again... It's a kind of logical game which bright designers of Mandala served to us. Any suggestions?
