Home Made Belt Grinder/Honer.

[Yorkie]

Hi,

Thanks David; yes the two suppliers did extremely well for me and I can now confirm that the third supplier has come up with the goods; the new grinding belts arrived whilst I was working in the garage this afternoon; I wondered who was pounding on the garage door. The ten belts cost £21.90 net. This is fair and I'm happy to pay the amount for ten custom belts and also don't object to paying the shipping charge of £5.50. I do however detest being ripped of to the tune of £5.48 for VAT. This hardly encourages anyone to buy anything.
Kind regards, Col.

Re the VAT Colin, you'll just have to hope that your leather belt from the States comes in 'under the radar' of HMRC, because if not, not only will you have the VAT to pay, but also the Post Office fee (about £8.00 I think) for collecting the duty.

At least Dick Turpin wore a mask!
