I did buy from there, having it mailed via USPS. Reportedly, UPS are very thorough about packages going through customs & you can bank on the charge for VAT (17.5% on the cost + postage) but I heard that the readers might be 0% duty. There's then an admin fee on top (£13?). USPS is more variable, in that if your package does get processed it goes to the local ParcelForce depot & they reportedly send you a letter in the regular mail asking for payment (plus their fee) - I'm not sure what the actual costs are, however.
