It's normal here for anything outside of EU to be taxed for the value of the items +cost of shipping, at something like 23%.
On top of this is a handling fee is charged which is around 6 euro.
2nd hand parts for RHD Volvos were easy to obtain from the UK, now it's not economically viable.
Skandix(and other European based specialists) have a minimum postage of around 25-30 euro, so its not much use for small items. I try and wait until I need a lot of new bits before I use them!
