Hello, by yellowbook on Jul 3, 2007 5:33:46 GMT 1, First post on this forum. Just wanted to say hello - I cannot even measure how much information I have gotten from this forum about prints and art in general. Don't have a Banksy yet - hopefully one day I will be able to afford one but have managed to pick up a few prints by Static, Dave Kinsey and David Foldvari.
I have become addicted to checking POW everyday - just in the off chance I manage to get lucky. I grew up in Los Angeles, but have family in Newcastle and visit regularly - I plan on visiting Opus and POW in the future. You guys in England seem to have it good when it comes to different reputable artists. Paying for VAT and shipping to California sucks.
I will try and post more in the future, but still am a complete newbie when it comes to art and prints in general. Just picking up prints that I like and think will look good on my wall (and anything my wife won't mind either).

Hello, by discoduster on Jul 3, 2007 6:16:19 GMT 1, Hi YB and Welcome.
This is a great forum for knowledge to feed your new addiction. Hope you enjoy your postings and don't be scared to have a different opinion.
You may even pick up a print at a reduced price or sometimes cost from fellow members which is always nice.
Enjoy

Hello, by RBK on Jul 4, 2007 9:01:36 GMT 1, Welcome yellowbook! Don't worry about being a 'newbie' - you probably know more than half of the people who post regularly
Small correction for you - if you are being charged VAT you might be getting a bit ripped off. You should not being paying that - the s&h costs are another story (and trust me, I more than feel your pain!)

Hello, by yellowbook on Jul 4, 2007 16:55:20 GMT 1, Thanks for all the replies. BONGO is a crack up - I can just imagine him showing up at my door and me having to tell my wife that this is BONGO, sorry if he speaks in fragments but don't worry I met him on a Banksy forum and he likes prints just like me.
Rklimek, I thought VAT was automatically included in every good purchased in the UK. So if I purchase any print from an English website that price included the VAT. Whenever I purchased anything when I was physically in England I had to get a special receipt and fill out paperwork which I then presented to customs at the airport and recieved a refund in the mail - although in many cases it just wasn't worth it because of the handling fees. That being said, it really depends on the business and if their taxable turnover has reached a certain limit and they are registered.
If anything, I don't really mind - to me it is just a cost of doing business and it would never dissuade me from purchasing a print I love.

You don't have to pay for VAT on books though. They're exempt, Thats one reason why Cauty put together a 'book' with a print inside once. Very cheeky but legal.

All the pieces of original artwork I've purchased from the UK have not had VAT added to the price and if it was included in the price I've had it taken off in a few instances. I've also heard you can do that customs/refund stuff - but I've never done it. Best thing to do is just ask/email when purchasing goodies!
