  1. Hey, i'm going to buy a koxx hub and 140mm cranks (ISIS), however:

    i live in australia, and i'm buying them from the UK UDC site.

    will the 17.5$ (or whatever the hell it is in %) VAT (or whatever
    acronym it is) be taken off the price as i go through checkout?

    would i be best to get it shipped to my PO Box, could they do that?

    do i pay GST as it comes into my country for it somehow?

    cheers.

  3. Usually shops will not charge you VAT, tho you will probably be charged
    GST when it arrives in aus. usually nobody will ship to po box

  7. Ah, OK. Well, they have to exclude the vat, it's for europe only. You
    can also try municycle.com - they are very good.

  8. ummmmm, maybe?

    does municycle.com have any sales tax that they put on?

    i might go through these guys if it turns out okay.

    do you remember if you paid GST for them at any stage?

    I don't recall paying GST or anything like that. Just the prices on the
    site

    On the Municycle website it says "incl. 16% Tax" in the small print
    next to all the prices

  15. Owen,

    The cost of shipping the cranks and hubs over to Australia would be
    £20.50 by DHL which normally takes 2 days.

    You will not be charged the UK sales taxes. This is 17.5% and it will
    be deducted from your order automatically when you process it.

    You may get charged by the Australian customs upon import though.

    I hope this helps. My apologies about the delay in replying but we
    were closed yesterday due to a UK bank Holiday.

    Regards

    Roger

    ___________________________

    that works out to be 240 australian, i'm going to get these!

    Roger is just the best
