Thats about VAT for sellers on the actual fees they get from ebay mate, but cheers for looking

As an online marketplace, eBay leaves the decision to the seller as to whether and how VAT should be charged on an item. eBay however does require the seller to adhere to all applicable VAT laws and regulations in listing an item on eBay.

Also, in the item description, the seller should set out clearly the amount or percentage of VAT that will be charged.

If there is no mention of VAT in the item description, the seller should not add VAT to the final item price. In such a case, if VAT is legally due, the seller bears the responsibility of paying that VAT to the appropriate authorities according to any applicable laws and regulations. Again, if there is any question as to the seller's VAT responsibilities, the seller should consult an independent tax advisor and/or local tax authority.

FAST AS FORD

What annoys me most is why has the seller put the part about VAT in smaller text and right at the bottom. Obviously hoping a potential buyer wont notice then tricking them into beleiving there getting the item for the buy it now price. I know you should always read all auctions carefully, but WHY has he/she not put the text at the top of the advert and in the same or bigger font as they wont sell the item to you without vat. It is important information that needs to be noted, just as much as the item description IMO.
