Over the past half a dozen years I've bought 20 or so albums a year from a number of shops in the EU without any issues at all. So far this year, two albums have just vanished into the ether on arriving in the UK with no explanation forthcoming at all from customs.
You would have VAT, import duty & and the courier will charge an admin fee to collect the VAT & import duty so yes you should budget between 25% & 30% on top of the asking price.Sorry to hijack the thread (sort of) but if I bought say an amp from Germany for £1000 would I expect to pay roughly 25% on top in VAT and import taxes so 1000 x 1.25 = £1250
