Alpina Fridge Magnets

Post by B10BRW » Sat Mar 27, 2021 3:55 pm

Alpina have just put on sale 6 magnets showing different race cars.
These are selling for 12 euro a set.
Thought I would treat myself to a set :D
Alpina charge 19.95 euros P&P.
CIF roughly £27.50, by the time you add VAT and the fee the post levy for producing the parcel to customs the total could soar to approx £47 :wall2
Decided I didn't really need them :(

If you are purchasing from the UK, the German tax should be removed and the UK VAT applied on arrival.

Perhaps Sytner might be able to sell these within the UK which would get round much of the financial toing and froing?

Alloy Wheels Direct should be able to supply them. I contacted them a while back about items from the ‘Alpina Shop’ and they said they could supply anything. I purchased my wallet and keyrings via them, as well as the centre caps.

I went as far as getting to the payment page, and German VAT was charged, on the goods and P&P :(
