if i was to buy a set of 24" tuffs from the usa and pay the 40 odd quid postage would there still be import duties to pay on top? cheers sime

I think its hit and miss really, ive just had some stuff delivered from Porkchop which was labelled as "gift" and ive had no drama....yet.
I have heard though that sometimes the tax bill comes a few weeks later?

You can get black and white 24" tuffs in the UK
If you buy from the US, it all depends on what the label says re: gift, merchandise, value etc as well as whether the customs man had his end away that morning, never mind the local post office who add their handling charge as well.................... :angrysoapbox: :angrysoapbox: :angrysoapbox:

They pop up on ebay now and again. The only ones on at the mo are in the US. And cheaper than buying them here :idiot2:
