    Hello,

    An old topic I know, but, I couldn't find the answer in previous posts and what's just happened to me is different to how Delcampe's News post explains it will work.

    I have just received my first 2 purchases from Professional sellers based in the EU and have had to pay Import VAT for the first time. Can Delcampe please tell me, or anyone else that knows the answer, how the VAT is paid? Is it the seller that pays (as according to my PayPal account they received all the funds) or, does Decampe pay the fee? Secondly, how do I know that my money has been used to pay the import VAT? Thirdly, how does the UK Customs authority/Post Office know that the VAT has been paid?

    Thank you!
