Price, weight, estimated value?

What if the item is a hand crafted piece of equipment that has no value to the components but the end product is useful, something like an alcohol stove made from soda cans?

Is there any rhyme or reason to the amounts?

Our imports are taxed on value. If you find a nice seller they will sometimes put "gift" on the ticket and set the value at under $25. Customs still like to have a gander (especially if you're ordering something metal) and for that privelage they sting you for £9!!!

I bought a load of the yo-yo reels. One lot got through, but the second bigger order got caught, would have been cheaper for me to buy them of some bloke in the UK!!
