Another thing to remember when ordering kits from England is that all
purchases made from a foreign country exclude the 17.5% VAT. It is usually
necessary to remind the vendors about this! I would assume that Pegasus are
putting this "spare" money towards postage for overseas clients - very fair,
I wish they all did it.
