Out of curiosity, did they deduct VAT from the listed price of the product (since you're outside the EU), or did they charge the full amount anyway?

My apologies for not replying sooner, I just finished up my last paper of university
today. What a nice feeling, haha.

Anyway, they did not deduct VAT. According to this site:

http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/money_and_tax/tax/dutie s_and_vat/value_added_tax.h
tml

"If your online purchase costs more than €22 you will have to pay VAT. If your online
purchase costs more than €150 you will have to pay VAT and Customs Duty."

No idea how official that is, but there you go. Cheers!

I think that's for importing from outside the EU to Ireland. You're importing from France/EU to the United States, so
I don't think those rules are relevant.

I guess that is what I get for trying to be helpful in a hurry and googling without
being specific enough, haha.

Either way, I had to pay the full price, so...yeah.
