What happens, is all international parcels that come into the UK go to the one sorting office. All of the parcels with a declared amount above a certain value (don't know what this is but someone on here might do) are examined and the appropriate duty is added. All the others are subjected a random spot check and if in their opinion the declared value is correct then the appropriate tax is also added. If they believe the declared value is less than the actual value (in their opinion) you would pay the tax on their valuation.The biggest bugbear is that out of the £12 you paid something like £8 is for the privilege of actually paying them the tax. If parcel goes missing the insurance payout is based on the declared value.
