102 Euro at R2-Bike including shipping. Works out about £90.

R2- bike don't ship cassettes to the UK though, so you'll need a alternative address to get it sent to first.

Haven't completed the checkout because I don't actually need it right now, but it's not stopping me after putting my address in?

Never used them but it looks like 52T are at the same price

Seems to be letting me checkout through Paypal no problem (£96.70 using their exchange rates) - just trying to justify it to myself now

I must be doing something wrong then as I’ve ordered one recently and had it delivered with no issues at all.

Yeah same - I have used R2 plenty of times, before and after brexit. Also just ordered another cassette, cheers OP. That’s one for each bike sorted through PSA’s on here recently. The other was £99.99 from an eBay seller, OE for that one but that doesn’t bother me!
Crazy to think that during the height of the covid parts shortage the best I could do was £180 after a lot of shopping around for a GX cassette!

I've just bought a 10 - 50t gx cassette from Hopkinson Cycles for the price above and it arrived quickly. Good service.

Ah cool, I had cassette in the basket that was binned when I put in a UK address was last year or so, so clearly changed.

Some great stuff in that sale that I absolutely don't need and am struggling not to buy

Under 130 you won#t pay VAT so double cheap for UK buyers

you pay native VAT if under 130. Retailers have to sign up to then pay HMRC. That’s why a lot of places either wouldn’t supply here, or had a minimum order value in the early days.

The 102 Euro price mentioned above excludes VAT

For me, with the (slightly higher) VAT rate here, it shows as 129,20 €

Did anyone pay any VAT or import duty on their orders from R2?

I ordered a cassette and chain from R2 under £130 total value including postage and the price I saw was the price I paid. Stray over £130 and they’d take their VAT off but you’ll be liable for UK VAT and import duty at this end.

@Blazin-saddles they don't include their vat, that's why I was being wary.

105,04 € MSRP: 244,00 € including 0% VAT

@ogden I ordered a cassette which just arrived this morning.
The R2 Bike website showed no vat added and Parcel Force haven’t asked for any, the same as last time I bought from R2 Bike.
