40th anniversaryDVD

[lotus]

It`s ready and can be ordered in the shop
And thanks for the nice price  and all the work to make this happen

[Ghosttrain]

Cheers lotus i have just ordered my copy.. ..

Would be nice if it were available at gigs to prevent silly customs charges. It will cost 2-3 time the price of the DVD to get it shipped to Belgium...

Ordered mine yesterday... Threw into the shopping basket few other items also, the postage doesn't feel so bad then...friend's birthday coming, valid reason

[Willard]

I took the hit on postage, but hardly prohibitive given the relatively low cost of the dvd set itself (well done and much appreciated, team NMA). Total cost ~$30 to the USA.

Looking forward to this as always with NMA related releases!

The nice people of the great Steve Hoffman forum want to know if this new dvd has PCM Stereo sound or a 5.1 mix and i don't know what to answer to them!:

Due to the size of video files due to the length of the sets the sound is AC3.

Just ordered a copy. When you regard the good price of the dvd itself, then the postage with almost half the price extra seems and is big, but i'm totally fine with paying 15 pounds for this whole thing.

@Bever
2-3 times the whole price for shipping it to belgium would be really too much. If Willard is paying 30$ for shipping it to USA. Are you sure?
But anyway.. it would be great to have the option to buy it at gigs..!!!

5 pounds for shipping - are you shure? I`ve ordered the dvds and a sticker - 10.30 pounds for shipping - so 5.30 more for a simple sticker?

But the shop status says it is shipped and perhaps it is here next week 

[cthulhu]

I'm pretty sure... I think you missed the option to choose which package&postage you want. There are 3 types and i chose one without tracking for 4.80pounds. The other options are with tracking and also tracking+insurance, when i remember correctly.

[lotus]

Thanks, that might be my fault

First time ordering after Brexit - am I right in assuming that there is no customs on the DVD due to the price (incl. shipping) being under 22€?

It depends, and is not very clear. I think as long as the parcel is less than €22, there will be no customs formalities, which would be the case here. As soon as Belgian Post needs to handle customs, there is a forfait of €24 just for custom formalities, and then added VAT. (https://www.bpost.be/en/receive-parcel/customs)

So say I'd want to buy this (which is the case):
https://shop.newmodelarmy.org/music/physical/vinyl/product/254-vengeance-%E2%80%93-the-whole-story-vinyl-limited-edition

Shipping included:
ubtotal   £ 21.00
Shipping   £ 11.75
VAT   £ 3.50
Total   £ 32.75

Equals €38, which means €24 handling and 21% VAT. So the mail woman will ring my doorbell requesting €24+€7,98, or €31,98 before I receive my parcel.

So going from a €25 record, I end up with a total bill of €69,98. Now I'd really like to order that record, but ouch.

So looking into it, this DVD is probably different, as it's cheaper than €22.

But I read things are changing again on July 1st as well. It will then depend on whether New Model Army store is a Registered Webshop: https://www.bpost.be/en/shopping-outside-eu

If it's not, this DVD can cost up to €27, which again is 2-3 the price.

In summary: it's such a cluster**** now after Brexit, and very unclear. And while I have the deepest respect for my mail woman, having to shed out €30+ in customs never is a nice surprise.

[cthulhu]

Oh dear! And i really don't get this and understand it.

So, if i order something like the heavy Vinyl you want, i go to the shop and have to have that p&p for 11.75.
With the record that would be 32.75.
And that includes the VAT of the price for the shop, which is 3.50.

So it all makes the package you receive worth more than the 22€
Now i do get and understand that because of that you have to add those 24€ customs fees. But what i don't get is that there is also another VAT added to this.

But anyway, if the fees are even higher than the original price of the good it really is just "ouch" like you said.

[Bever]

But what i don't get is that there is also another VAT added to this.

Yeah. it's the import VAT: https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/individuals/buying-goods-services-online-personal-use/buying-goods/buying-goods-online-coming-from-a-noneu-union-country_en#vat
