Re: Orlando sales tax?
Oh very nice
It's a good saving
and if the exchange rate gets better there will be even more of a saving
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.

no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.

Re: Orlando sales tax?
a declaration of a laptop above the personal allowance would, AFAIR, be free of standard duty, but would be liable to standard VAT at 20% Originally Posted by Deafjeff

Re: Orlando sales tax?
Seriously? You pay taxes here on the purchase and then have to pay VAT there? And it STILL works out cheaper? Wow. Guess I'll never be able to afford to live in Ireland.

Re: Orlando sales tax?
that's why it's called Rip Off Britain You usually find that things are the same in £s here as they are in $s with you 
I'd wait a while intil the Euro crashes completely and Ireland goes back to the punt, things might be cheaper then.

Re: Orlando sales tax?
When we went over they had just changed from the punt to the Euro. Merchandise still had the old tags on it. Things were a mess and very confusing! I just simply handed over the money and if they gave me change, I felt I'd gotten a bargain. LOL.
Things were expensive even then, though.
I just want to be on the coast of Bantry Bay in some little windy cottage, tucked up with an Irish Wolfhound and an Aga.

Re: Orlando sales tax?
I remember going into some shops and waving my British passport and not having to pay tax on some stuff, being a tourist.... Is this right, or was I dreaming?
could I do it again the Apple store?

Re: Orlando sales tax?
In some other States we have visited that has been the case, but I don't know if you can do the same in Florida though
It would be nice if you could
In one place there was this huge shop called DFS Galleria and everything was tax free if you showed your passport
