Digital downloads ending 1st January 2015

Digital downloads ending due to EU VAT Changes 1st January 2015









It is with regret that I will be ending digital downloads of my plans and other downloads on the 1st of January 2015. 

http://www.michaeljking.com/plans.htm  

This is due to Changes in how VAT is applied to digital goods and its effect on micro business like my own.   Selling outside the UK is no longer viable in this way under the new legislation. Since I cannot always tell where a download has come from I have to suspend all digital sales.  

I will go back to supplying printed plans and physical CD-ROM discs that contain the plans.
