- Corona & Brexit Update

Corona Update

Due to corona virus measures, there are currently fewer sites in the comparison overview than normally can be found.

This due to a number of stores stopped accepting online orders. Others have asked us to stop recording them temporarily, in order to reduce the pressure on the employees.

Online orders can usually continue at the sites that are still listed, it may be that the delivery takes longer than you are used to.

A number of sets are currently also no longer available. Covid-19 of course also has an impact on stores and suppliers.

We continue to try to provide the best and most complete overview of the prices, and look forward to the moment when everything returns back to normal.

Until then, stay safe!

Brexit Update

The UK has left the EU free trade zone per 2021.

As a result, local VAT must be paid on all packages, and additional import duties must be paid on orders above 150 EUR (ex VAT).
Some parties take this off your hands, while other parties leave it to the recipient (with additional costs).

For some time now, some sites once again offer the possibility to order sets, and the EU VAT is handled by them, so that you do not receive a separate VAT additional charge.

Many other sites no longer send to/from the UK at all.

We keep an eye on the regulations and as soon as we know more we will process this, for example for Amazon UK all sets up to 150 GBP are now included in the overview.

Non-compliant sites are still in the price overview, but only under the 'no local delivery' heading.
