I think the $800 threshold is too high.

Kinda surprised that each package from overseas vendors doesn't go thru more rigor. I guess if you buy new product from overseas you should plan on this as a possibility. They should probably just charge you VAT and call it good, it monkeys with the market a little too much when there's tax free slackness running amuck

I would be willing to bet that new products from vendors in the USA go thru the ringer when shipping to a buyer in the EU. Probably penalizes the buyer enough to consider buying it locally
