Can someone help me understand import duty?
Are there any differences between purchasing a watch from an AD and a private seller?
For instance, I am based in the UK. If I purchase a watch from a member of the forums, would I still need to pay import duty on the item?
And, can import duty be pre-paid to avoid the item being held at customs?
I know there are online calculators to estimate the price of import duty, but by and large, I have very little understanding of what import duty applies to, and what it does not.
