buying from EU

[andrew63]

Is there any other charge other than postage when buying from EU?

Also anyone used this firm:

Binoculars & Optics

thanks, andrew

Not from within the EU - as long as the local equivalent of VAT has been paid then shipping charges are all you need to add on as far as I'm aware.

I've not used that particular company.

This seems to be the same as www.astroshop.de or www.astroshop.eu or Nimax.

I bought my scope and a few ep's from them and have experienced no problems.

Apart from that I second what jahmanson writes.

You shouldn't have customs duty issues so long as you pay the VAT in the source country (a member of the EC).

I've purchased from Teleskop Express (Germany) several times & had no issues - very firendly service, excellent stock & prices which are pretty competitive, especially for larger items where it often seems to be much cheaper to ship from Germany to Northern Ireland than from the British mainland to NI. No, I can't work that one out, either.
