Jacques Gastreaux Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I thought some of you might find this recent decision of the EC Court of Justice dealing with an attempt by some Dutch to avoid what appears to be a very high Netherlands excise tax on wine. The difference between the French rate and the Dutch rate appears to be so great that it not only outstrips the shipping costs but leaves enough to motivate the avoidance behavior.

Stretch Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Does the decision cover barter? If not, they should simply insist that the millions of French folk who visit the Netherlands each year solely to buy cannabis each bring a good bottle of wine along to swap for some Kali Mist.
