What VAT rebates if i import something into the EU?

It says "to sell into Europe" not "to buy from Europe". In first case I, the EU buyer, owe VAT.

In second case whoever buys may be owed a VAT rebate. But it's not selling any more.

Theoretically, sales tax could act as an anchor for VAT rebates.
