2019, Brexit and How Will it Affect Comics?

A small group of xenophobic  people who believed whatever garbage they were told voted Brexit. From that day on it has been a mess and a hole getting deeper and deeper as headless chickens flap around.

So I was asked how this will affect the online store?

Firstly, it will affect the blog as everything is going to be run from Ireland -though blogger has jumped and piggy-backed all over the place in the past. How it will affect the blog -no idea because last time they reorganised it screwed up all the stats to a point that they are now meaninglerss -I think the last total of views for CBO was over 7 million.

Secondly, the online store operates so that a printer and the postal service in YOUR region deals with your order.  No ordering from outside your country.  It means you can order what you want when you want so no change.

For me it may mean having to not just lose money on every sale to the US (who tax everything sold even if printed and posted in the UK because the POD is based in the US and there is no UK equivalent) but also paying tax on books sold in various European Union countries. That may see the online store dropped or restricted to only UK buyers or the business just ending.

One of the reasons for the temporary price reductions was to give anyone interested the chance to buy before anything drastic took place.

So it will not affect customers but for me it could mean "bye-bye".
