I had similar experience - on $50 the charge was $60 - split even between tariff and UPS “processing “ fees.

<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">I recently bought parts from Racestorations in the UK. Your $500 purchase will cost 1.34 times more in the exchange rate. $670. The shipping costs are not to bad, depending on weight $50-75. The tariff is 20%, another $134
collected by the shipping company. Estimate $800+. Ouch!</div>

Does anyone have recent purchases and thus knowledge of how much, beyond the part's cost, it costs additionally for shipping, tariffs and tax, etc. to get it here? I'm considering parts costing just north of $500.
