Yes, 15: about $300-worth.
I knew they were gonna send them in small doses, so wasn't worried.

no charges on orders within EU as VAT already paid

Small imports below ?17.50 are not subject VAT or duty, so buying 1 at time usually does the trick.

That sounds like insider speak.

Thanks for the info, everyone.
I'm sorry I was off topic I'll put o/t in the subject header next time. (What can I say, I'm new around here....)

Recently attempted to order some clothing totalling $25 and was told shipping would be $30 with probable charges added by customs.....laughable.

Not quite lol, aspects of my day job require me to have knowledge of how to *avoid* paying such things!
