U.K. Import V.A.T. on a 1907 O.A. Bayonet import into the U.K. from the U.S.

[Peter Laidler]

Thereby hangs another paradox. The Royal Mail are obliged to deliver your bayonet. But if you send one, they will not accept it at the counter - for reasons best known to themselves. In the UK the Counter staff will ask you what is in the parcel. However, you are not obliged to tell anyone the truth (oh no you're not, unless it is under oath in a court of law). But once it's accepted, they are obliged to deliver. Whether you told a fib or otherwise!
