Just be aware that tou may have to pay VAT. If you do, royal mail will also charge you an £8 handling charge

I think the Royal Mail handling change has gone up recently from £8. I think it's around £16 now k >:(
I've had something arrived from the US where the vat and handling charge were more than the thing cost  :'(
If you can get the sender to declare it as a gift or a minimal value would help you out a lot.
