    Post Brexit import experiences

    OK. I'm thoroughly confused. If I buy used clothing from Europe and import it into the UK, does that attract VAT? Is there a threshold? I ask because I recently purchased a used jacket from Germany. Declared value was 70 Euros and it was shipped via DHL. I was not charged any duty or VAT. Should...

    Vintage roadside

    I remember this place from when I was a wee lad. Roy's Variety, Rt. 101A, Nashua, NH. Truth in advertising, baby. Upon reflection, this might have been Merrimack. Maybe a Granite Stater could confirm.

    Thanks for the info. That's quite a high spec. Apparently in the UK you would have to register and tax that since it's more than 250 watts and can go more than 15.5 MPH. Alas, it would probably be liable to VAT coming into the UK too.

    Any motorcyclists into Vanson motorcycle jackets? Recommend me one.

    I had a Sportrider, although I don't remember if they were called that back in the late 90s. It looked like this: Brilliant jacket. Two ventilation zips under the arms. No armor but thick leather. No pockets on the outside. It is not superficially dissimilar to the models you're considering...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    @casechopper - I've got a close relative of your jacket. Also Branded Garments NYPD but with faux chest pockets, thinner border on the lower pockets and Talon double zip. Sorry, not the best pic.

    Some nice finds there. Unfortunately searching for Vanek brings back a lot of ice hockey related stuff :).

    Wow that Vanson brings back some memories. I had the exact same jacket (down to the little pocket on the wind flap). From the look of the elbows that one's been battle tested too. Great jacket.
