You can't avoid it - if you leave it then it will be returned to the sender
Was it an eBay purchase - if so, and it is returned then they will have to pay you back as not delivered (if you open a case)
Why so much - what was the value of the item - if it was much less than they have marked it for and you have a proof of purchase (PayPal receipt) then you could try to claim the charges back - but you would have to pay the bill first

It was easily sorted in the end
It was £10 charge not £100 rm didnt move the decimal point. It was a easy fix though rm apologised.

It is just a way of making a quick buck. And it really would piss you off. I was in Asia for awhile and had to send alot of items home so i posted them. Alot of my personal belongings were in the box that went home. I was told everything was sorted with fees which i did pay over the odds. I was back home a few months and my package arrived with another bill. I asked the guy in the delivery van to let me see the box. He didn't give a **** anyway he was only delivering it. He showed me another bill and he also laughed with me.
Once I got the box in my possession I told him thanks and walked on. I told him i wasn't paying anymore because I had paid all the customs fees. The problem is if it stays in your local office you are more or less screwed and you have to pay.
