    Default How much tax on battery charger from US?

    I am thinking about buying a power bank (http://www.semsons.com/powerbank.html) from the US, the cost is $39.99. Does anybody know how much tax I will have to pay on this?

    Cheers,
    JMC

    I agree, it will save you a bit.

    I used to buy dvd's a few years back now and the average box contained 10 or so and not having any close friends (well ones I could trust) I ordered via the usual shipping methods and the duty on them was always around £20+!
