I had a parcel from them back in March and there was no customs bill, it came via Fed-Ex (very quickly!).

We're getting low so need another load. Nice little treat during a time when they're few and far between.

I researched, and didn't seem that their woukd be any customs fees, will feed back what happens.

Went for the Disney resort one, Tusker House (to remind me of bfast there) and the banana one and the pecan one.

Gone for beans...not sure if best...but I enjoy the grinding process, smells...and have time on my hands!

L&R Dreaming recently got stung for customs charges after they had received the coffee. There are quite a few people in their facebook group also reporting receiving a bill from FedEx amongst others.Skme people also got messages from Joffery asking if they are going to pay the customs charges from FedEx otherwise they would cancel the order.
If you dont get a bill think yourself lucky

That's your personal allowance when you bring goods back into the UK. Basically in this case you are importing the goods in hence why there is a charge. Its not necessarily VAT either. Although you can be charged that for the 'service' the delivery carrier charges.

It's been nearly 4 weeks since we received our Joffrey's delivery via FedEx. We haven't yet received any bill from them so we may have just been lucky. Our order was only just over the $50 for free shipping.

Just been stung myself with a customs/handling charge. £18.70 on an order with a value of $70. £8 of that is just a royal mail handling charge. I went to collect it yesterday as the website says the sorting office is open till 6.30pm except it isn't its only open 7-11am and shut all day today according to a notice on the door. Ah well its only taken 7 weeks to get here whats another day!

That's worrying, I wonder if the influx of us Brits ordering has put us in their radar.

Shame about the customs... The only thing I've ordered are tarte products and they don't seem to get caught up with customs tax, maybe they pay it. not sure.
