Just ordered new on Ebay a cheap DSOscilloscope ~£300, source is China via Hong Kong - delivery expected approx 14 days post via DHL or similar
- just wondered what can be expected as far as customs charges into UK or whether they bother with stuff like this, I have had meters etc and not had any charges but those were much cheaper than this is - others must have been down this route! Thanks ...
I am guessing that will be big enough both physically and on the value for customs declaration that they won't ignore it so you will probably get stung for an extra handling charge plus 20% VAT at the border.
20% on =A3300 plus shipping, plus =A320 or so handling charge
