My guess would be customs - pay it.

I ordered some stuff from the US and got a nice 60GBP customs charge from FedEx 2 weeks later. Apparently they clear it so it gets delivered quicker, and charge you after that.

I really surprised that this charge has come through - I don't think anyone else was stung ?

Sounds way too much to me - I thought that the max possible charge was 21% of the item purchase amount / value.

Sounds like you should check this out before paying

I got a similar bill from them for something I brought in from thre states, thay said it was a handling charge. I told them I wass not paying the extra charge and after 2-3 letters they gave up.

If you have the item in your posession then tell them stick it
