    Incompetent EU retailers not ready for brexit.

    High Street retailers and luxury brands are BURNING or dumping EU products | Daily Mail Online

    High Street retailers and luxury brands could BURN items ordered in EU rather than bringing them back to Britain to avoid cost and hassle of Brexit red tape - as internet shoppers see prices rise by a THIRD on EU products

    • Internet shoppers are facing extra duties and charges to release their goods
    • Has meant many shoppers in UK and EU have rejected orders and refused to pay
    • Could be cheaper for retailers to burn the goods rather than pay the charges
    It is believed that the issues can be ironed out over the next few months as more EU retailers register with HMRC.
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

      Who gives a tulip about overpriced clothes?

      Prices going up by a third is a benefit of brexit, do you still not see that stupid remainer? It will encourage UK companies to manufacture clothes so that this country can actually look after itself instead of relying on exports for everything.

        Surely you mean imports? Did you write this while in an incandescent rage, your face turning purple and steam coming out of your ears? Out of interest, where are the British cotton fields?
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          Yes.. exactly - where? Maybe because we don't have them due to imports being too cheap for British grown products to be able to compete?

            Not too sure that vetran has got the gist of this but it's what he voted for:

            These are not EU retailers but UK retailers who have sent stuff to customers in the EU as it quite clearly says...This is the same for any 3rd country that charges are incurred, it's just that with Britain once being in the single market hasn't realised that this now applies to them. If someone in France orders something from the USA, they'll have to pay those charges but they are already included in the price as it's been like that for a long time. Maybe British retailers could have foreseen this...

              Thanks Darmy for explaining to those that cannot read.

                Prices going up is a fecking benefit? and you are calling other stupid? Have you ever bought clothes made entirely in the UK? Lets say made from Scottish wool and actually put together in the UK? Next thing you'll be telling others how a diet made up entirely of British potatoes is the best thing ever. I think you are confusing the UK with China who can manufacture whatever they want fairly cheaply. And sure, yes, now all manufacturing will simply kick off magically in the UK overnight for everything and you'll have your great sovereign Britain yet again.

                  Actually Barmy has it half right, it is both ways despite the opening of the story being one sided. Imagine not being able to understand a Wail story. It is about not being in a single market and its obvious to anyone with half a brain. The British side is mainly about returns being too costly to repatriate as they are still goods.

                  1. UK people ordering from the EU retailers are being asked to pay additional customs fees, handling and VAT because EU retailers are not properly registered with HMRC (that is a UK body). These companies will also have to file the correct paperwork and possibly pay fees to repatriate their goods.

                  2. EU people ordering from the UK are being asked to pay vat and handling fees when they buy goods from the UK. On assumes the UK retailers haven't registered with the EU's equivalent of HMRC. These companies will have to file the correct paperwork and fees to repatriate the goods just as you would if you sell to all the other countries.

                  This is normal when you don't have a customs union. If you order something from Australia or Mexico exactly the same applies. This is the brexit we voted for. I just thought I would have a laugh at you remoaners and present detail number 1 as a one sided part of the argument, in your usual triumphant style and you get all confused.

                  See incompetent EU orgs don't register with HMRC. You cherry picked the argument that supported you just like you normally do.
