It's wierd how import taxes appear to be a complete "lottery". I paid about the same as you for my Reader, but I finished up paying £69 duties. Mine was sent via the USPS and finished up here with ParcelForce. I had to pay about £49 import tax and VAT, and a £20 "processing charge" before ParcelForce would give me the package.
