I recently purchased some wrinkle cream called Bellaplex.
It seems like a good cream and comes with good reviews HOWEVER, when it was shipped to the UK incurred customs charges and post office charges totaling £19.97
When you order something from another country if it is over the value of £18 you will be charged duty/vat and then the post office charges you as well a charge for dealing with this!
There doesnt seen any way around this unless the company who sends you the product does not declare the value (true value)
So buyer beware and sellers please think of the customer at the other end who gets slapped with unnecesary charges. if there IS a way to get around this please sellars, use it as return business is probably important ?
