I saw a piece on the Dutch TV news about this yesterday, and here is an accompanying article on the broadcaster’s web site:

Here’s an English translation.

Of slightly more interest to us because they went and filmed at a model producer, Artitec.

Interesting article, dealing with the VAT people was one of the hardest things when I was In business. Very quick to impose their power but trying to get a straight fwd answer was nigh impossible.Feel for these traders .

No, it's eBay adding the vat (they seem to be doing it for all non-uk sellers, from auctions to buy it now) makes some of the 'cheap' deals on watches and watch parts that I've been enjoying a thing of the past!
