Re: [ST] Is that right?

Yes, I believe all prices listed in the UK have to include VAT, I guess
to help people forget how much tax they pay. When you purchase something
from JL the price you pay will not include VAT with is something like
17.5% IIRC (probably not though).

FWIW, in Canada, specifically in Ontario the total sales tax is 15%, and
it is not hidden, very scary when your standing in line with a 150
dollar item say, you then say, 10% is 15 bucks, add another 7.50, 22.50
in tax, f#@$

BTW, thanks again for all the notes thanking me for the pictures.
