anyone ordered from valve store?

assuming he means dollars, then potentially he's looking at an £8 RM handling fee + VAT on the items (if not books/similar vat exempt goods, and caught at customs).

IIRC due to the weak exchange rate the current customs limit is about $25 for goods before charges kick in (the HMCE site has the rates they are working to).

If the package total is $28 and that includes shipping (with the goods under the customers limit) then he should be safe.
 
what unit of currency is a dolla

No need to be pedantic. You know exactly what I mean.


Hmmm, so I'd be paying an £8 fee for import , and then (15%?) vat for each item? ouch.

A pack of posters on the store is $20, I'd be wanting to spend around $60. And thats just for myself (housemate wanted to order too, generaly ~$60 too.)
 
Edited - I do not want any more responsibilities. :p

Was to mainly help the original poster.
