[Elecraft] INTERNET PURCHASING

[Geoffrey Downs]

Dear Kent,

Internet sales are not tax free in the UK. Nor, I believe, in the rest of 
the EU. We do not have local sales taxes in the UK but we pay national Value 
Added Tax of 20% on purchases of all goods (with some exemptions) whether 
from local businesses or from internet vendors - even on purchases direct 
from from Elecraft. This is 20% of not only the purchase price but also the 
shipping costs.

73 to all
