I have experienced the exact same issue as Kenneth_Lavrsen with Custom declarations for my last order. Processing fees for VAT handling were higher than the value of the good.
Sorry to repeat myself:
- Since SeeedStudio has many customers in Europe, why not having a warehouse in Europe and invoice with VAT included?
One single warehouse will suffice for the whole EU. Alternatively, SeeedStudio could sub-contract the logistics to a Tier-1 player or even to Amazon.
Until then, I prefer not to place any new order at SeeedStudio, as the final cost is impossible to forecast and always higher than expected.
