I also got mine from an American store, they seem to be cheaper over there. I had to pay about £30 import duty, and I think that might have included VAT as well, was a long time ago, can't quite remember. They don't tell you about that when you order them, but even so they were still much cheaper than i could find anywhere online in England. Mine didn't seem to have been opened, and the goods were described as clothing accessories, which in my case they are I guess.
