Unless you put the customs code for bike parts etc on the parcel you'll be looking at the converted value declared $400 plus the cost of shipping (that is always stated on the papers anyway) plus your import duty say 4% on total.

Goods $400 = £200
Shipping est $100 = £50

duty at 4% = £10

Vat on total £45.5

plus either an £8 or £13 charge that is described as Parcel force admin, but I have been told by parcel force they are fff'd off with customs about this becuase they get it in the ear every time someone comes to pick up the goods, but the charge is actually an admin fee charged by HMRC to pass the goods on to parcel force for onward delivery. Afterall they have been paid for handling the postage with the payment made to the us PO.

My guess total will be in the order of £68.5.

Superkav:
Don't wait for the letter, ring Parcel Force with the tracking ref and pay over the phone. That way the bike will get moving before the Christmas rush.

WARDY:
Just rang parcel force and the charge is...
