So I'm about to buy my first thing from Europe since we ruined everything. It's a tyre from Lordgun. Am I to expect zero additional cost to stated price plus postage? Current total is £47 - which seems too good to be true right now. Still less than RRP and tyre is hard to find in stock anywhere in the UK .

I would expect to pay £9.40 VAT plus a handling receipt between £8 and £12 depending on carrier. I wouldn’t expect to pay any import duty.
So, between £18 and £22 in totalEdit - lordgun small print:
“For non-EU countries (and other places such as the Canary Islands) goods are exclusive of VAT and may be subject to Customs Duties or Import Taxes of the country of destination. It is not possible to provide a different quote for Custom Duties asked for, these must be entirely covered and paid for by the customer.”
My recent experience, Lordgun are very good - fast, efficient, no double paying for VAT. You will pay an admin fee for >£135 but welcome to Brexit.
BikeInn - they are easily the slowest shop I've ever bought from, takes them a week from accepting your money to ship, and the shipping is very slow. I ordered a tyre on the 15th, according to the tracking it's still in the Netherlands.
I'd have no hesitation using Lordgun, I'm only using BikeInn because they had what I wanted and no one else did - they'll be the last company I'd choose to use in future.
