Take care in sending anything to Germany (or any other EU country). Ensure that the guy there, when returning the item completes an accurate customs declaration. If its not correctly completed the item is likely to be detained by the Border Force pending payment of VAT and duty. Even if it is correctly completed there may be a bill to pay. Plus Royal Mail/Parcelforce my want £12 from you for handling the process.

If they say its vatable you will HAVE to pay to get the item and argue later. Appealing is a tortuous process not for the faint hearted. I have bitter experience. I got some cash back but not all and it took months. Forewarned is forearmed!
