You UK guys are spoiled!!!! Our VAT went up to 19% this year!!!!
For everyone in the EU: There is no import duty on amateur radio equipment,
"only" VAT (including VAT on the shipping cost). The correct custom codes to
import at zero duty are as follows:
8517 6200 90 0 for complete transceivers
8517 7090 00 0 for antennas
85 17 69 90 90 0 for accessories, transceiver kits, etc.
It helps a lot if the shipper puts the customs number on the package and
invoice, since it usually saves a trip to the customs office on this end.

P.S.: You U.S. guys are spoiled with your CHEAP gas prices...we passed $8 a
gallon over here
