No VAT on papers in UK.
13.5% VAT on papers here.
Also, people are not willing to pay higher prices in NI, so price must be lower.
Gosh even with the VAT removed it's still 25% dearer here. I wonder is it printed in the North or something?
But no competition with barristers, accountants, doctors, IT contractors, web designers, HR consultants etc? It is all the fault of MNC and public sector?I always feel like I'm in competition with MNC and public sector people when buying anything. .
Yes, as I said earlier, MNC and public sector.But no competition with barristers, accountants, doctors, IT contractors, web designers, HR consultants etc? It is all the fault of MNC and public sector?
This is something that has always baffled me. How is it legal for shops to increase their prices so much over here?
What I mean by this is, a store in the UK charges £70 for a particular item, factor in the currency conversion the item should be €78 in the Irish store, say €80 to factor in fluctuations in exchange rates, but this item is actually €115 in the Irish branch of this store.
Can someone please explain this to me? It's not a general thing either because there is another UK store with Irish branches who charge exactly what the currency conversion dictates, ie £70 item will be €78 in the Irish branch.
There are some valid reasons for potential differences, higher VAT and hedging against currency flucuations for example, likewise, the reality is that the cost of doing business in Ireland is that much higher, for example, salary costs and insurance spring to mind.
It is all the fault of MNC and public sector?
