I think there is import tax to think about but I might be wrong.

Hi

I've just bought some goods from the states about £195 worth.

In my case there was a fee of £35 which is payable to the carrier, that was VAT plus an airport clearence fee of £8.

Dont know if it would be the same for you.

Yes Darren Simons right, I purchased some boxes of scrubing pads from a company in Florida 2 months ago, seemed like a bargain until I recieved a letter stating I need to send a cheque to customs and excise for another £28.00 they also charged me a holding / administration fee - Not such a bargain after all.

As far as I know you don't have to pay duty on gifts I think these would make a wonderful present from your friend in the states.

You have to pay the vat, on top. You can declare this before you get the goods then pay the vat to the revenue. Search web for this.
or take a chance that customs does not stop it, by having them sent seperatly and having nothing written on boxes. ie its best to say 'gift' then 'an imported tool dodging the vat man'.
You can import up to I think £36.00 before you have to declare it.

Vat man got me on 10 wii's

Hi Terry
Can you tell me which company in the States you bought the inline filter from ?
Thanks

Also the VAT is payable on the total inc the CARRIAGE not just the goods you ordered worth bearing in mind if your carriage cost is high ie airfrieght or very heavy.
