Specifically on Victorias Secret my old housemate used to order tons of the stuff all the time with no duty..

Or maybe I am missing something?

yes I just checked myself maybe it has changed in the last 12 mths;
I have just sent an email to customs to ask the same question as I had a very in depth conversation with them about the carpet last year
and the 120us was PLUS DHL shipping maybe it was 150 I cant reemembr now but I just know I sent the stuff back as I was not prepared to pay 150 in fees

Ill let u know the outcome of the carpet as I absolutely loved it but not double!
