Again I find myself wondering why I buy anything from outside the EU.  I have 
just received a lens from the USA, a secondhand Pentacchio DA15/4 which I 
bought for just under GBP300, including postage.  I have been charged a total 
of GBP84, for Customs, VAT and a Clearance fee (by the Post Office in the UK).

But at least it got to the UK, not a guarantee for stuff from the USA . . .
