In the past I've bought some brushes and knots from China because they've been cheap and always less than the £15 arrangement. Can you guys tell me what the arrangement is now, since the 1st Jan, when it comes to buying cheap items like this from China. I see they now add VAT..
I think the UK government removed the exemption for low value goods, and asks for VAT to be collected at source for goods under £135 , so that is correct that they add VAT.
No. That remains if RM have to engage and act on behalf of HMRC. Arguably the instances of this will be reduced though since VAT is collected in advance.

According to the dutch customs probably july.
I don't mind paying the vat, but the handling cost of the postal service are ridiculous (the postal "service" collect the taxes for the customs)
21% vat + €13 handling
