I think it depends when you joined the club. They changed the benefits earlier this year so that members now earn 15% bonus points instead of the 10% discount. The new benefits are worse since non-members earn 10% reward points anyway. Topcashback are also offering 5.25% cashback on Hornby.com 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold sjp23480 Posted August 31, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 31, 2023 Modellbahnunion have a wide selection of OO gauge bargains (mainly Hornby). Most significant is 21C1 Channel Packet for €135.42 - excluding P&P and VAT. I realise there will be import duty to pay, but I calculate the total cost to be ~£190 - which is still a decent saving on the UK retailers. They have a selection of other tempting stuff including Railroad class 40s for <€58.77 plus P&P and taxes - worth a trawl: https://www.modellbahnunion.com/e-vendo.php?shop=modellbahn-union-en They also give out freebies with orders based on the value of your order, which is a nice touch.

They shouldn't charger you VAT when you order it, it will be for our customs to pick it up on the way into the country. Some stuff will probably get through without you being charged, but don't buy anything without the expectation to pay it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can choose DHL or UPS to ship (€2 difference between them). I expect to pay VAT on arrival, but it may not get levied - depends on how Modellbahnunion complete the paperwork.

SM42 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) 15 hours ago, Ducking Giraffe said: Great, what's the vat and customs situation on stuff from Germany? German VAT is 19%. So expect that deducted at checkout (MBU do do this ) and expect to pay 20% UK VAT on arrival into the UK (so roughly the same price overall ) plus £11-£15 in admin fees from the courier. (DHL I think charge 2.5% or £11 minimum) If its still a bargain to you when that is taken into account then all is good Keep fingers crossed it gets through with nothing to pay MBU have some good deals on quite a diverse collection of items. Definitely a site worth keeping an eye on Andy Edited September 1, 2023 by SM42 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I ordered from MBU, it was EU 233.15 for 9 0 gauge waggons; note that the price shown reduces after you select UK delivery and german VAT is removed. The card charge was £203 and I paid a total of £264 including tax/vat/handling fee. The best UK price for that lot was about £501! E.g 6 wheel milk tanker usually at least £70 UKP worked out at £37.52. It worked out as £1.17 per EURO listed on the site. I think you might get an even better deal if you order total, including postage, is less than £135 as this is under the import charge threshold.

Wasn't a loss though, came away with clamps and some really small heat-shrink tubing (1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm etc). Perfect for loco wiring. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 It’s been mentioned here before but I think there are new additions to the Model Railways Direct sale - SF Colas Class 70 with 35% off, also 37201/262/194 in SF, SFX and non DCC with 30-35% off. Good discounts for fairly recent releases! https://modelrailwaysdirect.co.uk/special-offers/special-offers-in-oo-scale.html?p=3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously a snip at £49.99, I suspect the cost of corporate greed living crisis will bump the price up a little, but I am now at the point of requiring a second cabinet in order to release my loco collection from their storage boxes (and be able to have shelves dedicated to certain classes or even types of locomotives!) Lidl did have a really fine looking dowel sinking tool to allow holes to be accurately drilled for joining wood - like a plonker, I left it to the following week and all the stock had gone! Can’t go much wrong for £7.99 really, can you? Steve S 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
