I believe there was an interesting thread recently regarding importing from
the US.

I bought a pocket camera (er film,actually) via the internet recently from
BH New York.

Cost of camera    199.95 USD  about 128 GBP
Shipping by air      28.50 USD  about  18.20 GBP

Import Duty            4.75 GBP
VAT                          23.32 GBP

Parcelforce Clearance fee    7.75  GBP

Delivery was pretty quick  -  about four days


So final cost to me was about 181 GBP

The camera is now available in the UK

Cost  (guess what)  199.99 GBP


So I saved about 19 Quid  (the cost of walking round the corner and waiting
in the queue at Jessops)


I guess you would have to put a lot of noughts on these figures to start
saving serious money...............
