Wow, I bought an ee revelation in the black Friday sale 20% off so worked out about 220 quid.
Just got my customs note saying I had to pay 80 pounds, I dont know how this is worked out as vat is only 20%. I dont mind paying a bit of tax (well I'd rather avoid it but you know what I mean lol) but surely this just pushes people to cheat by using forwarding services and friends abroad to send them 'birthday presents'?
Just a word of warning I guess for people importing that taxes are ridiculous.
Still...look forward to my new quilt
