I have just tried to order a couple of blu rays from a US seller who I have used before in the past. I get to the payment page, click pay and this message pops up:-
! This seller is not allowed to sell to UK buyers.
This seller has been identified by HMRC as not being compliant with UK VAT rules, so we have restricted their sales to UK buyers. We recommend that you search for similar items from other compliant sellers.
Seller has still got 400,000 items for sale in his store. So hardly restricting sales to UK sellers.
