Were the taxes a surprise or were they pretty much as the duty/tax calculators suggest?

Hi Lenny,
I managed to find an "as new FA* 400 in Seoul, the guys English was excellent, and very helpful too
the duty calculator was about a pound out, so they work OK
Took about 5 days to transit to here from there then 2 weeks in bloody customs!!!!
