You won't have to pay duty because they'll never arrive.

Hilti are very particular with selling there tools, normally sold via reps who will do site visits or you can buy direct from Hilti website.
Typical scam In my opinion.I have the makita LTX702 kit which cost £650-00 incl VAT... site advert is $259-00 says it all0 -

bought a MAKITA BHP452RFWX LXT 18V LI-ION COMBI DRILL DRIVER from ebay for £145 bargin compared to other sites, inc similar on screwfix.
the li-ion batteries are much lighter and last alot longer than normal batteries.0 -

Because anyone can get web hosting and google doesn't actively moderate listings, it's all automatic.They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it, they say you can catch it - but sometimes you're born with it0
