Thanks for the info.
4.7% of the price I sold it for? Or 4.7% of whatever item value I state on the shipping form?
And this means that the buyer will get charged this on arrival in the UK?
(Sorry, haven't got my head around all this yet)

It's done on the declared value I believe, so it'll be duty on the stated value, then VAT on the total of that, plus the cost of the shipping. And the courier fee.

Make sure you write the model year in the description, otherwise to a non bike person it may seem underpriced if they google “brand bike frame”
