The sender has really needs to protect themselves against loss though, as declaring something for a lesser value in order to avoid the buyer paying customs charges won't help them if they have to make a claim for a lost item.
Personally just expect there to be customs charge, and if there isn't that's a bonus.
Good point about insurance, but unfortunately it's often worth the risk anyways.. The prices can be absurd and even worse when you stack on top the handling fees from the postal service (don't know if you have that in the UK)
It's like the equivalent of 20 GBP on top here just for them to take a peek, makes no sense to be honest.Yeah we get their 'admin' fees on top
