UK would add 20% import duty + 20% VAT (sales tax) + £11 to the carrier
for collecting the above money off you before delivering! 

Those are very recent figures I got ripped off with importing an item

Strangely, importing from China is often much cheaper as they usually
lie on the value of the goods or just don't putting it on the outside of
the package like all US exporters do ;)
