UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE HAD TO STOP POSTING TO USA FROM TODAY 29/08/25. This is because of the new tariffs imposed on all imports to USA of any value. As there is currently no mechanism to collect the 10% tariff within ebay. Will miss my American customers. Regards, Ian Priddey.


Taking a short break over the Bank Holiday. My ebay shop opens again Tuesday 26th August at 13:00 Regards, Ian Priddey ebay.co.uk/str/retrocompu…
