These are the ROKA SL-1 sunglasses. They look pretty nice:
Here it is listed on their website for approximately £95 (at time of writing the dollar is trading at 0.76 to the pound).
But what happens if you try and buy the sunglasses in the UK? Suddenly they are £165.
That appears to be £18 in mysterious currency difference, £25 delivery and £28 in taxes. Although to be fair, I can reduce the delivery cost by £2 if I select “import charges collected upon delivery” with no indication as to how much these might be.
Is this what everything we buy is going to be like after Brexit?
