Hey! Someone from UK knows how much is it to revice PC parts from USA, and are there any fees, like  customs? 

Thanks!

 

BTW: Buying from USA is cheaper than buying in UK or in my country.

dont do it

 

you will end up paying way more for customs, it can take literaly months before you get your package if youre unlucky

 

its generally not worth it in the long run (otherwise every one would do it)

The reason it is cheaper is because everyone in the UK has to pay VAT on purchases, +20% +Shipping +Import Charges you'll end up paying more.
