Argos legendary for this nonsense now. Try finding a decent value laptop on their system. There's a few listed. Never any stock. PC World used to be at this stunt years ago.
Don't even bother looking for laptops at Argos. Too much crying wolf to be believed.

It depends on the product. The above product will incur import charges despite the main page not mentioning it.
Here's a example, the above item page states:
Price:
$109.00
+ $5.24 Shipping & Import Fees Deposit to United Kingdom
Clicking the "Details" drop down arrow shows the following breakdown:

A good price, yes! However, going to the last checkout page states:
Order Summary

GBP 87.30
Shipping & handling:
GBP 4.20
Total before tax:
GBP 91.50
Estimated tax to be collected:
GBP 0.00
Order total: GBP 91.50
Please note that your country may charge import duties, taxes and fees that you may have to pay ahead of delivery.Learn more
Notice the warning about additional charges.The following item page:
AmazonGlobal makes international shipping easy by calculating import
fees at checkout, as well as clearing customs for you. In addition, you
have the visibility to track your packages door-to-door.Learn more
The second item won't incur custom charges as Amazon has already calculated the cost and charged you in advance.
For the second product it isn't really worth the hassle/wait time (£6.69 saving).
