I have had both a laser pen and a phone from Hongkong, both arrived within 7-10 days with no problems. | |

All goods imported into the UK are liable to VAT and import duties. How much is down to the value of the item or type of item iirc | |

If it is over whatever the value is, is marked correctly and goes through parcel force or fedex you probably will. | |
