shipping, import duty, and VAT
Posted by djk on August 12, 2012 at 14:25:24:
The (insured) shipping, import duty, and VAT might raise if from $200K to £200K.
If the shipping and insurance was 5%, import duty was 10%, add 20% VAT and you're up to $277K, or about £177K.
I don't really know what the actual rates are, just guessing. I do know some countries charge 100%~500% import duties on items like this.
