I like how a discussion on VAT can get to dunking dog biscuits in gin…. Only on the Forum! 🤣
With Sarah, Phil, Ellen, Rose the dentist, and the granddaughter whose name I forget.

If you wondered why art in galleries was so expensive, as opposed to the fee you might charge privately (though never advertise your wares for less than any gallery you use is charging: they won't like that and will likely refuse to deal with you again) you now know why.

The way I think of is this.  You are in effect buying a service from the gallery to sell your painting as such that service will attract VAT.  Exactly the same as having  your boiler serviced.

Well I guess Sylvia, what we can all say now is, that we are well versed in how VAT works and that we all know your dietary preferences lol. X
