That's somewhere between 0 and 6.5% duty (most camera gear is around 3.5%, lenses are nearer 6.5% though I forget the exact rates). 17.5% VAT is then charged on the purchase price, shipping and duty. Finally, the postal or courier service usually adds a brokerage fee for settling up with Customs for you and billing you later (often something around £7.50).<snip> David yeah you do have to budget a bit more for various charges, but I doesn't work out that much and IMO is very much worth it to get the RRS gear (yes - you can tell I'm impressed with it - and I used to be an engineer!)
