Looks Ok on paper. I would just sound a note of caution about the cost - since it is a fairly expensive item it’s unlikely to avoid duty (if applicable) and VAT charges. Last time I had something shipped from China via DHL, I was really pissed of because despite paying around $25 for the shipping, when it arrived in the country not only did I have to pay VAT (fair enough) but DHL demanded about the same as the original shipping again, by way of a customs clearance fee. A total ripoff, but I had to pay it as they had my thing and wouldn’t give it to me unless I paid up. It was just to cover the cost of them waving the paperwork at the customs chaps. Seemed a complete con / extortion and Never again will I use DHL! I have used DHL for stuff from the USA pay the VAT first and it works well, got caught out once though when for some reason Royal mail got involved and wanted the VAT again plus the a fore mentioned admin fee I brought the invoice along to prove VAT paid they wouldnt budge! In end Simon a mate from Inland robin you phoned them up telling them they had to release the goods or face prosecution! Bunch of crooks
