Out of curiosity, how does import tax work in UK?
On something like that I'd have to pay 25% VAT on full price incl. shipping + a £17 import fee.

Whenever I import stuff usually I ask them to mark the value as $5-10 so usualy pay nothing, with this it will be about £10.

How accurate is that website for calculating the duty?

import duty varies from product to product.

IMPORT Duty + VAT on the product cost.. plus postage handling fee
