# This would look good on a T-shirt.
Talking of T-shirts. I ordered four from the States a few days ago ($87). How likely is it that I'll have to pay duty/taxes on them when they arrive?

# ask the company who posted them
maybe they posted them as "gifts" and you'll be lucky?

# Their site said something along the lines of:
"We're not responsible, we don't care, look it up yourselves."

# you will be paying duty
ven if it was a gift..nto sure what the exchange rate is currently but with a gift if the value is over £36 you pay duty. I think any way.

# I think the limit is meant to be something like 30-40 quid.
I used to order bunches of CDs from the US and occasionally they'd sting me. You might get lucky.

# I've never had to pay before, but I've never spent this much before.
I hope I won't have to bother.

# It is quite annoying.
But it seems to be largely pot luck as to whether they bother.

# True
I once got stung quite a lot for just one CD and yet much bigger and more expensive parcels have just slipped through.

# Hmm.
Even with that it's still probably cheaper than buying them here. And they're damn cool shirts.

www.designbyhumans.com, if anyone's interested.

Edit: *eats last Ferrero Rocher*. Mmm. Best £1.05 I've spent in a while.

# I sort of like their stuff, but I think T-shirts are much nicer when the design covers more of them.

# I think that's a bit high
I bought a Popcorn Hour NMT for $224 inc postage (£120) and paid £33 in duty etc. Parcel force the robbing cunts will charge more.
I would guess about a tenner, I hope it's not too much I've just bought 4 t-shirts from the states as well.

# Buying stuff from the States tends to vary.
You usually get away with it if it's one item, you might get stung for four though.
