 +===== Important changes =====
 +
 +Transportproblems like missing insurance options and the new VAT rules in EU (more administration) are changing GCA handling.\\
 +Due to changes of taxes administration in EU community, pricelist will only indicate prices without obligated VAT, TVA, MWSt, btw.,\\
 +Addional taxes (according the destination country) will be added on proforma invoice on ordering.\\
 +From this moment on, shipments will be done via Postnl, and ALL shipments with a value over € 80,00 will be insured.\\
 +Orders with a value below € 30,00 (excl. shipment, TVA, VAT, MwSt) will have extra charge of € 6,50 administration fee.\\
 +Orders can be made via email to peter@phgiling.net or via this **[[:gca:gca-orderform-en| order form]]**\\
 +Paypal payment is no longer possible, too much administration work for me.\\
