    You will have to pay 10% cct tax and 21% vat of the price of the parts and the shipping.(Pending on how it gets here)
    They base the figures on the invoice you get from your contact so if they put a lower wrong price on it you pay less:)

    They also charge VAT on the price of the parts plus the 10% duty, a nice little double-whammy.
