UK does not tax books but some other EU countries do, though at a lower rate. So I guess tax would be payable on books imported to e.g. Germany from the UK.
"Other" EU countries? Has the UK rejoined?
Dutch VAT on books is currently 9%.

What about the albums of the band with Henderson and Kenny Dorham that were issued under Kenny's name?
A Kenny Dorham Mosaic with all his 1950s/1960s recordings that can be licensed would be great. That's one I also suggested to Scott.

While talking to Scott at Mosaic today via email about some matters I asked about forthcoming Mosaics and he mentioned they would be issuing a Joe Henderson set. He didn’t say when it would be issued or give me any other details nor did I ask.
Ha, good to hear. I suggested a Henderson/BN set to him a while ago, along with a few other "BN in the 1960s" sets: Lee Morgan (I hope this one will materialize), Wayne Shorter, Bobby Hutcherson including Dolphy's Out to Lunch, Freddie Hubbard, Herbie Hancock (the BN set has been OOP for a long time), Dexter Gordon (same), and maybe 1960-1963 Jackie McLean.

...it would be annoying to pay tax on goods (and shipping) that have already been taxed in the country of origin, plus the customs fee for processing...
It might be a good idea to ask the seller to deduct VAT before ordering anything - at least until 1 July; from that date EU VAT regulations will change.

This may be interesting for EU residents who import items from non-EU member states: From the website of the European Commission: new VAT regulations from July 1, 2021

If I understood well, part of the recent deal was no duties within Europe but deliveries will be possibly slowed down by border controls which have already begun.
Value Added Tax (VAT) is due on goods ordered by EU residents from non-EU countries (like the UK) with a total value exceeding 22 euros, but that will change: from July 1, 2021 VAT is payable on all goods imported into the EU from non-EU member states, regardless of the declared value.

I make an honest mistake and get dumped on like I'm some of poseur. I'm outta here. Nice knowin' you.
Well, calling someone a prick because you don't like his attitude isn't very nice either. As for your mistake, maybe I'm wrong, but I actually did get the impression that you're insisting Moerer is running Discogs, despite everything others have said and lacking evidence to back it up.

Sorry if I made a mistake by letting people know about this. You've always been a prick. Thanks for confirming it.
You saw someone post a message on a marketplace site, assumed he ran the site and posted your assumption here as a fact without evidence to back it up, and now you're calling someone else names because he questioned your false information? Reminds me of someone in high office...

Sorry if I rang an unnecessary bell, but the fact that Craig Moerer runs both Discogs and Records By Mail, I thought the message was a advisement about both entities. See below:
The fact that Moerer posted that RBM message on Discogs doesn't necessarily mean he runs them both. Anyone can join Discogs and then post a message there. There's no evidence whatsoever Moerer runs them both.
Moerer is not included in the team that runs Discogs, nor did he found it.
In short: Moerer is selling records on Discogs, but he's not running it.

Is this really true currently? Because I see options to use a c/c directly and sometimes options for paypal only. I thought the c/c payment was a pass thru from discogs to seller, an option sellers can choose? I'll be happy to know if that is not the case but how does discogs get paid otherwise? Rely on sellers to "give back" their fee at the end of every month??
Again, it's Records By Mail that was affected, not Discogs; they're two separate entities. I don't think Records By Mail is giving their customers' financial details to Discogs. People are buying stuff from RBM that was advertised on Discogs and are dealing directly with RBM. Unlike Amazon Discogs is not involved in the financial handling of the sale other than taking a fee from the seller.

RBM sells on Discogs but I can't find anything to suggest they're the same entity.
And as I see it Discogs is a marketplace rather than seller and I can see no reason why they would hold financial details. All transactions are carried out with individual sellers not Discogs per se.
Happy to be proved wrong by someone more knowledgeable.
Correct, Discogs is a marketplace that holds no financial details. The transactions are done directly with the sellers, not Discogs. The title of this thread is incorrect and misleading.
Note that Discogs is mentioned as a "third party" in Records By Mail's message ("What we are doing"), and that's exactly what it is.
-edit- Just noticed that the originally incorrect thread title has been edited.

Sorry to hear this.

I also think that the Point of Departure indicated that they wanted to go on recording Dolphy. they signed some important Avantgarde Artists that time.
Yeah, they didn´t usually do one Offs. One exception was Charlie Rouse ´s "Bossa Nova Bacchanal", this was the only Album Charlie Rouse made under his own Name for BN, same Thing Art Taylor´s Album.....

Several years ago I asked someone at Mosaic (I think it was Scott) about this and he told me they weren't allowed to release a CD-version of the first Hodges Mosaic, they could only get a license for the LP-version; it was Verve's decision, not Mosaic's.
59 minutes ago, gmonahan said:I think that's part of it. A few sets were "reissued" on cd not long after they came out on LP. I got the Bechet Blue Note set that way. Bought it first on LP, then when the cd set came available, I got that and gave the LP set to a library, but that's the only time I ever did that. The first sets were all LP only--Monk, Art Pepper, Clifford Brown, Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker, Tina Brooks, and Budde DeFranco/Sonny Clark.

The Buddy DeFranco/Sonny Clark Mosaic was also released on CD by Mosaic, 4MD-117.

That would mean lot of overlap/doubling for those that have the big RCA box
Yes, there would be quite a bit of overlap, but the Mosaic would probably have better sound - the big RCA sounded overprocessed to me. It's been a few years since Scott said it still was on their radar, and I hope it still is and will actually be released in the near future.

Thanks. I'd seen that one, but was somehow under the impression there'd be another, licensed release. My mistake.

If not, what are you waiting for? A phenomenal album, in tribute to a phenomenal album -- what's not to love?
Just listened to the album on YouTube. Nice, but not quite my taste, and don't like the drums being so forward in the mix.

No one has ever been restricted from participating and I have no idea why you thought that.
I've seen quite a few polls on US-based fora with an international membership that were mostly US-centric, so I assumed this one was too; my mistake.

OK. I assumed you'd be mainly interested in the situation in your country; I guess I was wrong.

I take it this is a US-only poll.

So, anyone know what exactly the situation is?
Importing/exporting UK/Europe after Brexit
in Miscellaneous Music
Posted · Edited by J.A.W.
As a Dutch customs officer recently said to a lorry driver from the UK: "Welcome to Brexit, Sir".
Doesn't Sweden - as a EU member state - apply the tax-free 22 euro threshold for imports from a third country? That threshold won't be abolished until July 1.
