Oh I didn't know you too were looking for that bag. Never saw you mention it before so I thought it was one of your friend's. Congrats!

Add ons depending on payment : currency conversion fee, shipping, insurance (shipping was higher because of the volumetric weight vs repacking and potentially smooshing) UPS customs broker fee and customs import fee... Never had to pay import fees before... Maybe because of shipment value? Then I don't know if someone over there got a VAT refund or if VAT didn't apply? Not an international shopper. Came out to around $100 under retail still since it was in SAS.

You should save the 20% VAT as it's an export sale so it doesn't apply

So does that mean it wasn't charged or the forwarding company is claiming the refund or do I need to do something ? I bought directly from Coach, but sent it to a UK address. They forwarded it to me.

It might be that you won't get the VAT refund because your purchase address from Coach was a UK one even though you had it forwarded. I can see that being the case maybe. Wouldn't the initial seller be the one to pay the VAT - which would be Coach?

Google seems to think I pay VAT to coach since I shipped to UK. Coach gives it to government. Sounds right. If I bought it in UK in person then I would detax before flying back.
Funny I paid tax to UK and to US upon import and still ended up less than retail.

Bought this today from the boutique. Originally was £350 down to £140, which was a great price! Parker top handle in jasper red.

Yes that's right sorry I meant if it was an export sale there would be no Vat all in sales pay the 20%. Importing from Europe is so much cheaper than us buying from their US as UK duties import tax and VAT is draconian

It is a cute bag. I think there was one with horses on it too? IIRC it has duck toys or something on the other side which I wouldn't like as much.
