Buyer beware

more_vert
I made a purchase of a watch winder several weeks ago from Massdrop U.S.A I live in London UK Today I received an email with this breakdown Customs Entry £8.50 Import duty £3.79 Import VAT tax £28.99 Total £41.28 The email message from our UK Customs contained if I failed to make payment by a specific date it may be destroyed ?? Or returned etc Quite rude, aggressive perhaps brusk Most odd that a colleague made the same purchase from the same company and was charged a lesser amount £17.00 by Customs Even a broken clock is right twice a day!! My fault for not reading the small print, but clearly it makes your purchase more expensive. Thank you for your time.

Have heard MD is working on a European delivery solution. Might be worth checking Customer Service for an update?

RayFMorning Thanks for responding. I don't mind spending £15-20k on a watch, but the extra £41 is a kick in the nuts. I'll not get back this money, back but I will never make a purchase again from MD. Cheers
