UK buyers from import anime?

[Thunder King]

Even trying to make a 1st class stamp 33p would be a rip off to the consumers i suggest settlement between union cheifs and the royal mail should just sort it out quickly. We UK'ers got bills to pay and lots of mail to recieve.

Most peoples mock exam results are still in the mail depot, what a shame that this had to happen... :mad:

metier9\other guys waiting for anime, can you mail me: [email protected] when you receive your anime? I just wanna know if you had to pay customs charges or not

[Metier9]

i reckon hellsing wont get charged but the Ruruoni Kenshin boxset probably will i dont wanna pay £20+ in customs.

The customs charge will depend entirely on the value declared by the seller. Royal Mail will charge around £4 'handling' fees no matter the value declared.

On the other hand you might escape entirely - I received the 12-disc Kenshin set through the letter box in two separate jiffy bags.

OK thats great news on the strike has ended but the backlog for one day would be 5days since it was 16million mail per a day.

Good thing is everything should be on track.

Hello, officially the royalmail have said it will take up to TWO WEEKS to get everything going normal again!

They say the worst is in London.

Masterplan, I will email you once i get my items. I have bought love hina 3dvd and ikkoku 10 disc in once package. Customs will be a lot of money.
