I did read on the HMRC site that as of next month the gift value drops to £35.00
just keep telling everyone you want a value of 20USD(like i always do)and the gift value drop absolutely doesnt matter

I no that's what I always do.
$20.00 all the way !
The only thing is if your buying 5 or more Steelbooks customs are more than likely to nab you for import duties. In the UK anyway.

Not sure what the limit is.
So far, I have never been hit with customs. I ordered 2 steels 2 seperate times from Amazon JPN ($90-120 CDN total each) and 1 steel from Amazon CHN (~$60 CDN) shipped by DHL and I didn't mark any value.

I think as your in Canada you should have no problem with customs. Not like in the UK where they slam us for everything.
Every time I order from amazon JP I get slammed with a handling fee & customs charge.

Very soon, gift value is going to drop to £1 and all merchanside will be liable to 20% VAT and 8 quid RM fee.
Instead of setting very low limits, HMRC/UKBA could try enforcing a fixed % charge on all packages (say 1% or max 3% of the goods value).
Btw, HMRC no longer handles customs. It is taken care by UKBA.
Update: Gift limit is now £36.

Where did you hear about that Igans, when is this supposed to be happening. This would be a nightmare.

It's already happened, they seem to have sneaked it in quietly, details here about half way down the page
Thanks Jammy, I was talking about the gift value being dropped to £1. I had never heard of it before and if it happens it will be big trouble.
I am sick of this country, they screw you every way they can with VAT & that ridiculous handling fee from Parcel Force. It's getting very expensive now to import Steelbooks from outside the EU.
Why can't it be like the US where you can import up to $1000 before duty gets applied.
I am starting to think its time to move back to the US as the government in the UK are he'll bent on taxing us back to the Stone Age.
Rant over!!!!

Hi Guys,
That was just a rant. Obviously it can't be droppped to £1.

That was just a bit of speculation I guess but it wouldn't surprise me if this government did it in the future to screw a bit more tax out of people

GTA V definitely deserves the steel treatment. Would love a nice collectors edition. Can't wait!
