REMEMBER - IT IS MORE ECONOMICAL TO BUY MULTIPLE PURCHASES AND PAY ONE POSTAGE COST -------------------------------------------------- Die Uniformen und Abzeichen der Kosaken in der Deutschen Wehrmacht - Peter Schuster & Harald Tiede Scarce and detailed book, in German but packed with info.Shortly after the Wehrmacht invaded the USSR in June 1941, Russian prisoners of war and defectors wanted to fight alongside the German soldiers against the communist dictatorship with weapons in their hands. By 1945, the number of these volunteers had risen to over a million fighters. Almost every tenth Red Army soldier fought against the communist system as a Wehrmacht soldier. An event that is unique in the history of war and has hardly been appreciated to this day. The particularly oppressed Cossack peoples made up the largest contingent alongside the Russians. At the end of the war they even formed an army corps. The Cossacks in the Wehrmacht are particularly attractive in terms of uniforms. Political circumstances and war-related constraints resulted in an attractive variety of clothing and badges. Both Tsarist, Soviet and German uniforms and badges, including mixed ones, were worn. The traditional Cossack costume looked particularly picturesque. Numerous contemporary uniform pieces, headgear and uniform badges are depicted and described - in color, of course. The rank insignia and sleeve coats of arms are documented in detail. Separate chapters are dedicated to the Young Cossacks, flags and command signs, edged weapons, awards and propaganda material. Historical images that document the training, leisure time, commanders and combat operations form the conclusion. The material, which has often never been published before, not only represents a handbook about an unusual chapter in German uniform knowledge, but is also an important addition to the history of the Second World War. 160 page hardcover published 1999 -------------------------------------------------- SHIPPING:UK Items usually sent by Royal Mail or courier SHIPPING: OVERSEAS ITEMS WORTH LESS THAN €150 / £135 From 1 July 2021, the Brexit transition period ends. From this date forward, EVERYTHING sold to a country outside of the UK counts as an export, and as such could be subject to VAT/tax. EU member states require an IOSS (Import One Stop Shop) number, although this is optional. From 1 July, eBay should provide me with an IOSS number once you have completed checkout. I will then make sure this number is visible on your parcel. This is to tell the customs officials in your country that you have already paid the relevant taxes at point of purchase. The VAT rate for books and printed papers is 0% in the UK, but it may well be different for your country. The good news is that eBay have an entire team dedicated to working out the tax rates for you - these should be visible on your pre-order summary just before you complete checkout, and will be based on 1) the applicable VAT rate for the type of goods you have bought 2) the value of the goods. If you have won an item at open auction, then the final tax amount will not be visible until bidding ends. If you are purchasing a 'buy it now' item then the applicable tax should be visible before you complete checkout.This rule covers items less worth than €150 / £135, regardless of whether there is one item or multiple items in the order. For orders worth more than €150 / £135, please see below.Some countries such as Australian (ABN numbers) and some US States have already implemented the collection of taxes at point of purchase, so customers in these countries will in most cases be familiar with the collection of tax when buying on eBay UK. If any additional codes are required for your parcels, then I am confident that eBay will provide me with them. I will then in due course make sure they are visible on any paperwork or address labels, to show you have already paid your tax. current VAT rates for books can be seen here: https://www.internationalpublishers.org/our-work/vat-and-fixed-book-price/printed-books-and-vat-gst SHIPPING:OVERSEAS ORDER WORTH MORE THAN €150 / £135 If your order - whether an individual item or multiple items - is worth more than €150 / £135, then eBay will NOT provide me with an IOSS (Import One Stop Shop) number once you have completed checkout. Currently, such orders will be subject to tax/VAT (if required) only when they enter the destination country, at the discretion of the local tax authority and based on the tax rates for the kind of item(s) you have purchased. *Please note* that the parcel may also be subject to a release charge by the customs agency in your country. This is the system as it stands - in the future, there may become available a service whereby you can pay all charges up front, in which case I will update my listings.

I try my best to describe items accurately, and resolve any issues in a timely manner. Please refer to my 100% positive feedback record over the last 20+ years. YOU HAVE 30 DAYS from date of payment in which to return an item and claim a refund. This is the time allocated to you as a customer by law, and conversant with eBay's returns policy.
