Paul will verify this, but I seem to recall that you will be slugged 1 pound or so VAT for your 1 penny purchase.

So you do need to use the gift card method to purchase these very very cheap India books.
I did indeed get charged £1 per purchase. But this was a bank charge, not VAT. It wouldn't have been a problem if I'd used a shopping cart, but I bought each one individually!

I did buy a gift card, but it was a WHSmith/Kobo gift card, and only usable in the UK store. I'll investigate the eCard.
