oh yes Josiah :-) ... @ Mark Mwangi so in my understanding Ipads which I think would fall under PCs or Mobile devices, Laptops, PCs and Mobile phones are zero rated ? so technically only the 5K would be payable ?? TVs and the other electronics would then fall under the normal 25% and 16% VAT....

That charge is for zero rated electronics like cameras mobile phones etc if they are sent via post. Think the charge is called etf or something.
