ShopDisney US site

Has anyone purchased from the ShopDisney US site?
My better half was planning on picking up a Dooney & Bourke bag when we went to WDW this summer. As that's now off, we've spotted a 30% discount on Dooney and Bourke, valid until tomorrow night. Problem is shipping, which is $76, and then the unknown customs/admin charges that will also likely follow. Anyone have experience of these? Do they charge them before you are handed the package, or is it an invoice in the post?
The bag is around $260, so the discount and postage pretty much cancel each other out, its just the customs charges I'm a little unsure of.

I had one bought and sent to me (individual) showed as present and got charged fortune in customs 😢 Learnt my lesson

I ordered it :-D

It would have been something we would have bought at WDW, so the 30% discount makes the shipping and customs easier to bear.
Noticed there are a couple of websites in the UK where you can order stuff from ShopDisney US, and they bulk order everything. Saves on postage and customs, you just pay them a membership fee. Will look at that for smaller future purchases.

Still trying to get my order from UPS. Missed the first delivery and they've messed up the address change, so wasted a day on Friday waiting for something that was never actually out for delivery.

Maybe tomorrow!
