From what i gathered most EU countries have a lousy €22 tax free limit for goods imported outside the Eurozone. Anything above that and you get raped with Sales tax, Tariff and Administration costs.

In Holland where i live the Administration costs are €13 on top of the 21% sales tax. Not sure about tariff though. You only pay tariff here for goods with a value higher than €150 and i never ordered something that expensive.

Also in holland they charge extra administration costs for EMS packages: €17.50 instead of €13,-
Its also worth noting DHL on the other hand only charges €10,- administration costs.

Over here DHL also handles costums stuff MUCH better than the regular mail by way. They text you with a code you can use to access their website to pay the costums charges in advance so you dont have to wait 2 to 3 weeks for them to calculate taxes and pay them with cash at the door like with EMS/E-Packet/SAL
