If I'd bought those ones would I still have a customs charge?
It's pot luck whether you get charged at all, but you get charged VAT on p&p on imports, so once you're into getting charged the difference between the two is small unless either the goods are zero rated for VAT or they have a substantial excise duty rate.

I ordered something from AliExpress that cost about £25 with free P&P and got stung with customs.
There were other sellers selling the same thing for c.£10 +£15P&P. If I'd bought those ones would I still have a customs charge?
Cheers.
