I don't think you will be taxed on but you will be responsible for all Custom Fees.....

This can also be based on the seller. Sometimes the seller will include all duty fees in the shipping price. But generally you are responsible for these fees. Consider this when buying from a US seller. Even if you buy 1 item you are still improting products in from another country and it can cost you extra.
