Just to balance the horror stories: I have had a number (~7) of
shipments to the UK from Elecraft over the years and only once was
charged anything other than 17.5% VAT (plus the outrageous
ParcelForce fee to collect it, of course). On that occasion, I
contacted Customs by e-mail, they asked me to send them the sticker
from the package, and I got a refund of the duty within a month.
