OK then. So it looks like this is going to end up costing me more than buying it in the UK. RIP OFF BRITAIN STRIKES AGAIN.

How will I pay the extra VAT and Customs duty that I will be expected to fork out when it arrives to be delivered to my door. The item is coming from the USA via USPS then it seems it will be picked up in the UK by Royal Mail for delivery to my house. Will I therefore have to pay the extra duty to Royal Mail before they will release my parcel? Do I get letter from them telling me they are holding my parcel and I need to bring x amount to get it released???
