Brand new RTX's for sale

if we have anti-scalping laws and the continent doesn't? Yes, protection from foreign hawks would be necessary n'est pas? If we're going to have these benefits of leaving the EU and making our own laws then maybe we can start seeing them in reality? We already have lost our consumer rights on foreign purchases, so it's not the level playing field it used to be, nevermind customs duties, VAT at the border, and the like people have been having issues with

So would you be OK with products in the UK costing say another 50% more than the same product for sale on the continent?

... We already have lost our consumer rights on foreign purchases, ....

Have we? I don't want another venture down the Brexit rabbithole, but can you just explain that, in case I missed something? By PM, if you wish, rather than risk that diversion here. It's a sincere request, by the way.

yeah, consumer protections, return T&Cs, warranty claim etc, now default to the selling country's laws and you need to now go to the court in the country you bought it from if you think they haven't honoured the warranty terms etc. Apparently we can't rely on our consumer laws and pursue it through UK court as we could when in the EU. It makes it far easier for a foreign seller to go radio silent and bank on you not pursuing it through inconvenience, distance and language barrier. If you're doing any international purchasing use a credit card as you'll need to rely on section 75 or whatever the clause is.

nope, but we're not in the EU now so can't do anything about that. We've had higher RRP for sometime now anyway especailly
since the £ tanked and prices didn't get adjusted.
