Customs Idiot
Well, one of the lads in the office wants a new P4. Apparently everywhere he's checked in the UK is out of stock or far too expensive. I doubt that, but hey, it's his money.
Next thing we hear, he's on the phone to Customs & Excise to enquire about Import Tax from America or German. He then gives his address, continues with the enquiries & hangs up. To which, we replied, "Why did they wan't your address for a simple generic query?" and "Oh, you're going to be watched now!". Followed by lots of comments about white vans parked outside his house. Just thought I'd share |

From his phone conversation, he already knows about the VAT charge. I've also warned him that customs can, if they want to, smash his newly ordered CPU to bits & he can't claim anything from them. So you see, your words of wisdom are listened to |
