Found some very interesting ICE(DVD,monitors,MP3 players) parts in Ebay from companies based in Hong Kong. They are WELL cheap and was wondering if anyone has bought anything from such a company.

How Much those two would be? And are they besed on the purchase price, or the guys in customs play God and value the goods themselves?

Import tax and VAT is like a lottery sometimes it just seems to slip through and other times you pay it. From what I remember the the UK duty is 17.5% (VAT) plus 8% excise duty which is levied on the full figure.

be careful depending on what section of electronics it fits into you could end up paying upto 40% import duty.
look on the customs and excise web site for more details.
