Hi,
Just thought I would share my experience of buying the same product before and after Brexit from Fanatec.
Maybe be of use to UK buyers who think they are being charged extra since Brexit.
The product was a podium hub :
Purchased 4 Jun 2020 total paid £206.06
Purchased 25 Jan 2022 total paid £217.37 all charges paid including VAT handling etc
£11.31 Increase
We have to bear in mind that shipping was 6 Euro (£5) more expensive this time, so that would make a total of £6.31 more expensive.
Now that's fine by me, the only gripe I have is they are now shipping the unit in two boxes quick release and hub and as I had a "Brokerage Charges: £11.50" would it of been cheaper if it was one box anyway that's life.
Hope this may be of use to somebody.
