Plus the £8 Royal Mail admin charge for dealing with the customs documentation and 20% VAT on the purchase price, the shipping costs and the admin fee. You're looking at about £40+ VAT = £48.
I did the same thing a couple of years back with the difference that Belgian Post charge €18 ! If it's from the same US supplier as the clockwise tag that I bought, then they're hard-anodised, unlike the originals and an absolute b*st*rd to stamp ![/quote]No Rik. We are allowed a commercial purchase up to £130 (Not including postage) before any fees are applied. Postage costs from the Americas have always been outrageous.
This guy in Argentina makes some lovely correct brass etched labels and speedo dials etc. $15 for a saddle tag plus $20 shipping. As Ian says, could easily go in an airmail envelope??
