An Interesting Kickstarter VAT Development.....

[David Manley]

Seen on TMP, from the current Cthulhu KS project.....

Just yesterday I read an announcement for the Cthulhu Wars project:

"Good news for our European backers!

After consulting with several logistics companies, we are happy to announce that we will be able to help you save money on import taxes. Because pledges on Kickstarter are explicitly for the "funding of a project in a pre-retail environment," we can ship our products to you with a declared commercial value equal to the core manufacturing cost, rather than your full pledge amount. This should save a lot on any VAT taxes which may apply."

Hopefully Ares are all over this in terms of declared values on what they send us next month. Could save us a pretty penny!

That is good news.

Less taxes - wonderful.

...but can't compete against no shipping costs.

That`s good news, hope it workes...
