It's well above the no duty threshold.
I usually allow 25% plus £10 for the handling fee.
Import duty on most things is usually 1-3%, then the courier's handling fee can be anything from about £6 to £20, then you have to pay VAT on top of everything.
The handling fee, and how and when the duty gets paid depends entirely on who the courier is in the UK.
Royal Mail/Parcelforce require the duty to be paid before they'll deliver, whereas others may deliver then you get a letter a few days/weeks later for the duty.
