Welcome to Snuson.

There are several regular members who live in the UK. I would expect that one of them would know the answer to your question.

If the product is sold outside of the UK youll not incur tax at point of sale. Ive never had anything stopped by customs but I understand that if you do get stopped you will incur the duty at 20% and a small admin charge. No biggy.
If bought within the EU you will pay tax at the duty of the country you bought it in which is the point of sale. This package will not get stopped.

You will only pay VAT on orders from outside the EU if its valued at over £20, other than that you shouldn't get any problems.

Yes..if customs actually bother.
