i am sure there is a reason for this, but after googling around I cannot find it.
Basically (picking up on a discussion os Swedish forum) when we order from Minispares we are charged the 25% Swedish VAT rate instead of the 20% Uk rate.
Seems the same issue for for other EU customers.
I buy lots of stuff from the Uk but MS are the only retailer to not charge the UK VAT rate.
Anyone know why?
