Parcelforce are no better or worse than any of the others. I've had stuff through Emery, DHL, Fedex and a few less well known, and they all charge to handle your parcel, and it's usually £8 to £12.
I am really interested in the fact that a nation thinks it is OK to cheat on payment of a lawful tax, but would probably bang on about Social Security scroungers!! The more we try and buy abroad and avoid paying import duty and VAT in the UK, the more they are going to assess each parcel, decide on a value, and charge you. With the internet they can look up any UK prices, and then charge you accordingly. Stop moaning - get used to it or shop in the UK!!
