is this the right place to ask about the new EU import VAT rules?
i hope it is, as it affects only EU residents, but if not, sorry, just ignore this.
well the way i understand it is that when you purchase something from outside the EU, if the seller is engaged in the EU program and collects the VAT at the moment of purchase (for instance JDS labs do, aliexpress do as well....), then, if the value is less than 150eur, you can receive your order without any problem and with no need to pay anything else.
i actually find this quite advantageous over the previous system and many devices discussed here are cost less than 150eur (176usd as of today), but i have not tried it yet.... so my question is, has anyone "experienced" the new system?
thanks for your comments
