Brief Description: Wing Kit Collected from Coatbridge
Justin had previously agreed to help me collect my wing kit, as he has a trailer for his Europa. I left work early, with Rupert, met up with Justin, and did the deed.
The sea freight experience was not cheap. Once the consignment had arrived at Coatbridge I had to arrange for customs clearance, and make the payment before the goods could be released. As a result I was charged storage because I could not get the paperwork organised and the goods collected before the charges kicked in (after 7 days free storage).
Here's a breakdown of the charges:
VAT on the kit £583.28 Freight charged by Vans £90.00 (approx) Freight £131.62 (this is over and above the Vans shipping charge) Customs Clearance £65.00 Deferment Fee £50.00 UK LCL THC £50.00 (whatever this is) UK Documentation Fee £40.00 Presentation Fee £14.50 Storage Charges £55.00
