The cart I'm working with (ZenCart) has some very weird and wonderful ideas when it comes to calculating the total of a shopping cart (particularly when discounts come into play). I'd dearly like to be in a position to rewrite it!
I've seen it, most recently when consulting on some server break-in a week or two ago. Getting you into VAT problems is only one of a large number of reasons why I'd look for an exit plan. Ideally, I'd get out before the VAT changes back in December, but if it's not started yet, that's probably going to be tricky.

Curious,
