Scampy's double gusseted Loakes held hostage at Bang Na post office.

**The Gentleman Scamp** · 10-04-2014, 10:37 AM

I paid about 25 English pounds for postage when I ordered them so why were they not delivered to my apartment, or at least the post office opposite. They were not even at the next nearest post office. Instead I had to take a taxi to Bang Na central post office where I was met with a faux friendly Thai smai of the usual default insincerity and told to pay a further 1,200 baht before I could receive them.

I know this is wrong and greedy but is it standard practice when receiving goods from overseas which have already had the postage paid for?

Perhaps the 25 quid was just the delivery fee from Kettering to LHR, in which case Royal Mail have inflated their prices outrageously since I was last back in Blighty.

Getting ripped off................It's a shoe-in mate.

**Thormaturge** · 10-04-2014, 11:09 AM

For any item valued at more than ThB 1,000 the recipient should pay 7% VAT plus any import duties.

IF the shoes cost you ThB 17,000 or thereabouts then ThB 1,200 would be correct.

The price you paid in the UK should not have included the UK VAT.

The way this works is that VAT should only be paid in the country where the goods are used. Thus when they are exported from the UK in new condition the UK VAT should not be charged. Instead you pay VAT in Thailand where the goods are used.

Loakes eh? They should last a while. I have Church's Oxfords which I bought around 20 years ago; just get them re-soled occasionally and they're fine.

Scampy..............what happened with sandra. any updates?

**The Gentleman Scamp** · 10-04-2014, 11:21 AM

Okay so perhaps I should address this issue with Amazon. Thanks Thomaturge.

Rupert, Sandra is working in a nail salon in Doha and it was her birthday yesterday. That's all I know.

Since 2008, with the exception of a Taffy and a Spaniard, I have only dated Yanks and Japs.

Were you given a white printout sheet that had to be filled out on the back with your passport details and signature ?

Long time no see my friend. No I wasn't, the Thai man did it himself and got me to sign it after inspecting my passport.

Been in that post office many times, in the basement. At least your shoes will be better than the crap they sell in Bata, findig etc

**Rupert Wanger** · 10-04-2014, 11:42 AM

Gay Tony would love all that Doha Arab cock too

**The Gentleman Scamp** · 10-04-2014, 12:10 PM

**Cujo** · 10-04-2014, 12:17 PM

Nice boots but won't they be a bit hot and uncomfortable in Thailand?
Or are you doing the colonial mad dogs and Englishmen thing.

**Rupert Wanger** · 10-04-2014, 12:18 PM

Yep, he was banging her.
For at least a month or so that we're aware of.
They used to post together in the morning, it was so cute.

**Loy Toy** · 10-04-2014, 12:34 PM

Ice Maiden is a really nice young lady and we had a good night out in Bangers with Norton in tow.

She told me she was heading back home to complete her studies and I hope she has reached her dream.

Yeah I couldn't make it out with you lot that night. You in the same place that was opposite my old gaff?

**Bettyboo** · 10-04-2014, 12:37 PM

Was Ice Maiden DJ Pat's cousin? I thought he only shagged family (after getting them drunk...)?

**Rupert Wanger** · 10-04-2014, 12:41 PM

^Thats why I don't think she's family.......he never shagged her

**Rupert Wanger** · 10-04-2014, 12:42 PM

She stayed at my gaff a couple of nights before going to see her old man in Pattaya and I never shagged her either
