You were lucky with the Inglourious Basterds steelbook as that is over the £15 customs limit, the limit ATM according to the HMRC website is $24.36 (15 x 1.6241)
So it it had got caught you would have had to pay VAT on the cost plus VAT on the P&p and then there's the Royal Mail £8 hostage fee as well.
Yeah, seems that way indeed! Although it did come via DHL, so lucky Royal Mail didn't get involved.
It doesn't matter who the carrier is, be it Royal Mail, DHL, etc...If it's over the customs limit, it will be held at customs, and surcharged.
I once purchased two steelbooks from amazon.ca, and I was charged £6 tax, and that was with DHL.
Always purchase one at a time.....Apologies for straying off topic.

Well, I guess we all have to start somewhere. After months of lurking on a couple of these custom cover forums, I'm finally going to contribute something. Here's my first attempt at a custom Steelbook design.

* For the record, I'm not actually a fan of these particular Michael Bay movies, but I am an admitted Transformers "nerd", hence picking this to start with.
Hope to contribute more soon.
