Andy Robbins Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 My mum had them designated as monuments in order to stop commercial salvage. It’s a ‘look but don’t touch’ thing. She wanted to preserve what was left of them after salvage companies had been using explosives to blast bits off the wrecks. 4

Ex-FAAWAFU Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 “Collection only”. Not convinced eBay’s standard settings are really cut out for this sort of thing! 1
Rob G Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 That '20%VAT will be added' is a bit cheeky. Do you guys pay VAT on used goods?
smackers Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 VAT is usually payable on used goods when sold by a trader or company.
Grey Beema Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) About 15 years ago an Aircraft carrier came up on an auction site (I think it was ex RN). Thought it might make a good mobile Tiki bar. Sail it to some nice beach and operate it as an off shore bar. Space for boats and helicopters for the more well heeled and keeled guests. I was alright for the first £100 it was the next £Million that was the problem - oh and the 1000 gallons of four star..... Edited June 23, 2019 by Grey Beema 2
