Customs charges to ship pushchair to Spain?

Evening all,
After a bit of advice - hoping someone will have some knowledge in this area.
I have done some research on Which? and found perfect pushchair from Mama's and Papas (Sola model). It's currently on sale on their website for £150 cheaper than I can buy it here in Madrid.
Mamas and Papa's website state that they will deliver to the EU providing I pay with UK credit card (which is possible) however they state that I will be responsible for customs fees. Had a look online and couldn't find any detailed info on this - does anyone know how much these fees are likely to be?
My mum is coming to visit me in Easter so perhaps I could get it delivered to her and she could pay for excess luggage?
Not sure which option is the best in terms of being MSE! Obviously if the costs exceed £150 then I would be better off purchasing it here direct....

Most airlines will let you take a pushchair for free if travelling with a small child (does not affect your baggage allowance).
Perhaps you know someone who is travelling out there with a child and would be willing to take it?0 -
