Time for a rant, just got my Palace shirt delivered, well no I had to pick it up from the Post office and pay £30 to get it...

Why, because it was sent with no customs declaration (so they opened it up) BOOM 13CHF.
They Had to repack it BOOM 18CHF
They charged me VAT BOOM 15CHF

So CPFC should have sent it with customs forms AND removed UK VAT.... We better frigging win on Saturday.

Come see the £100 shirt pre match in the Cronx, it's easy to spot it's got mr. apollo written on the back at £15 a sodding letter.

Switzerland coming up with some way of fleecing people for money, who'd have thought it...

Unless it was a personal gift, and it's not, the Swiss post website states:

As a rule, every consignment from abroad is liable to customs duty and VAT.

The only bit you can seemingly moan about is the UK VAT, which you could request back from CPFC while you're here.

 


Optimistic as ever

Also the fact there was no customs form attached, that is why they opened it and closed it again (to check the merchandise) for a measley £20

Fair. The person sending it probably thought it was in the EU and didn't need a customs declaration.

for that price, you should have ordered some class a merch from se25 to make it worth it.
