Bidding on eBay - VAT additional - WTF ??


Pete

Recommended Posts

Has anyone else noted the following or is this a quirk that can be ignored ?

I am bidding on a couple of used silver coins on eBay from different UK sellers with UK addresses.
When I check the status of my bids there is a new line stating VAT at 20% will be additional and quoting a higher price.
I haven't seen this before so can anyone explain please ?

ebay are aware and are working on it............apparently.

I had some items that automatically had 20% added on the listing (it would seem), but on my dashboard it was at the correct price.

eBay tell me that not everybody will see it with the 20% added. its to do with where you are viewing from in the world and the VAT that overseas bidders would pay. But there is a bug somewhere in the system and ebay doesn't seem to recognise your location. 

I don't think that you will pay VAT on the final price. If you do, then i'm sure ebay will refund it as they are aware of the error

I'm bidding on an item which is currenty at £700 and says VAT will be added, so i hope ebay will sort it!!! 🥺
