VAT Included?

February 22nd, 2010

Most retail websites include VAT – as they are required to do but how many times have you got to the checkout to receive a rather nasty shock as VAT is added on to your purchase price at the end of your transaction? I know I’ve come across it a few times.

Excuses, usually found in the small print, include that the retailer sometimes sells to businesses or occasionally sells goods outside of the UK. Not good enough – and what’s more it’s illegal. If you come across this practice the best thing to do is go and shop elsewhere.

All prices on Craftsite include VAT. We say so every page of the web. Shop at good trusted sites, whether it’s for card making supplies or anything else, and nasty shocks at the checkout will become a thing you’ll never have to experience again.
