    Youch! Looks like I'll be sticking with those that remove vat for us then
    in fact might be helpful if we can share those sites that do. I'll start with the obvious ones amazon.co.uk and dvd.co.uk who else?

    Actually this starts on 4th January. Increased from 17.5% to 20%.

    Hopefully we won't be having an increase in GST in the near future.

    A fantastic idea. If there are enough International VAT-free UK sites we can come up with, I might even start a wiki thread on this. :)

      i think "epic shops with free postage" would be good. Ones that have been tried and tested with ozbargainers. (not referring to cheap ebay electronic websites, but things like book depsository etc

  • Does anyone know at what limit dvd.co.uk start taking the VAT off? They don't seem to do it for the lower priced items.
