Yes, from Rails of Sheffield.

It is unfortunate that these coaches have gone to Rails rather than Accurascale. I have no idea how Rails will deliver these (I had mine going to my trunk with Hattons) or how much postage will cost.

And yet all you could type was this ?
They will be produced per Hattons closing down letter but how and by whom will they be delivered is not known, so don’t bother reading the entire thread

I agree, bank holidays are a nuisance when awaiting important post.

There's not much stock left in Hattons now and final orders must be placed by 2pm tomorrow. The clear out of stock didn't take long in the end.

A few horns would be useful too.

Wasn't it only 2 weeks ago that Hattons said these coaches had been cancelled from production?

The locals herabouts will have been surprised to see a 48A arriving at my house today, not far from its route through Dundrum. They thought it stopped running 10 years ago.
It is a beutiful model, very well finished. It compares well with Adrian Lemon's Ghost Bus.
Maybe an 11 needs to follow since that is my local route?

As an interesting aside, my sister in law ordered a €200 gift voucher from IKEA not realising it would be sent from the UK. She duly received a request from An Post for €52 before the voucher could be delivered. She refused to pay and contacted IKEA who cancelled the voucher and refunded the €200. Two days letter An Post delivered the voucher despite having received no payment.
I had advised her that there was no VAT or duty on gift vouchers as they were effectively cash. Revenue have since confirmed I was correct. Obviously An Post also realised that at some stage too and so released the voucher, but too late as it was now cancelled.
It is hard to believe that the state agency reponsible for delivering our post is so incompetent.

Hi George, An Post charge €3.50 fee on top of the VAT. Spoke to An post customer service, waste of time, phoned customs only to get recoded message to email them! Phone call to Hatton's and hopefully they are going to sort it. I have copied the breakdown of charges from one of the emails but deleted the customs and tracking No's.
Regards. John

29/08/2021Had reply from customs, they say its An post applying the charges!!
"Good morning John
I have forwarded your query to ecommchargequery@anpost.ie as an Post are now putting charges on the packets.

An Post seem to be using a "belt and braces" policy and charging VAT when they are unsure whether Irish tax is due on a delivery. Is the customs value of €52.11 the amount you paid for the goods? VAT of €13.31 doesn't look correct as it is 25.54%.

As if answering my question I see an update today on Facebook. No completion date but certainly progress.

Any update on January ?

The photos are, of course, much larger than the model and so exagerates the errors.
I have the model as released by Asianbus but it was only available as route 203. It is great to now have a second option on route 202.

I presume they deducted UK VAT from your invoice?
