Yeah but it still prevents the possibility of not being charged the duties at all, which having ordered extensively from Japan, US, Switzerland etc has historically been a 50/50 chance of charges.
That was more of an educated presumption of how the global shipping program works, based on the fact they’re never going to do anything that purely benefits the customer if it doesn’t give themselves something in return, and they’re never going to risk not charging what could potentially be charged, which, from historic experience, seems to be completly inconsistent finger in the air guesswork.

That's just not how their global shipping program works.
They actually charge you less than Parcelforce would because they take advantage of your tax free element.
