GUEST,Guest, an upset Santee Secret Santa - Santee teasers - 2012 (222* d) RE: Secret Santa - Santee teasers - 2012 11 Jan 13

I'm upset because having received a wonderful selection of goodies from Santa, and having been shocked at how much Santa had paid in shipping charges it appears that I am now being charged a reasonable whack of money because I received the gift! FedEx are asking me to pay, claiming this is import taxes based on the declared value of the goods and shipping.
I'm keeping this anonymous as I don't want my kind Santa to feel guilty or impelled to pay any more monies out on my account, but I thought you should all be aware that if you send stuff to the UK the cash value of what you send is now lower than before and unless you check what to write to describe the items your recipient may face the same trouble.
To give an idea, in this case the amount they want from me is 33% of the value of the goods.
I'm appalled.
