So I had a bag sold through consigment, the shop is located in another country, but still within the EU. The conditions on the form (and on his site) were that he charges 35% of the sold price (which included all selling fees) + another 5 for handling fee.
So now he sold the bag and he wanted to give me less than what is the amount that is left when the above mentioned is deducted. So I corrected him and asked if he maybe made a mistake. He then answers the amount he mentioned is because he has to charge me VAT.
I don't understand this. It was NOWHERE in the conditions and why would he charge me VAT for selling through him anyway?
Is he allowed to do this without any mention of this beforehand?
