Buying from abroad, especially Europe is fine. I am however assuming that the post and packing cost you saw covered overseas shipping otherwise you might be in for a shock if the £8 was only for Belgium and he has to recalculate for the UK. It should be detailed quite clearly on the auction what the postage covered, but if it doesn't specify airmail it wouldn't hurt to just clarify with the seller whether that is the method he uses.
Airmail is quick, you should be able to get your item in a week or two, surface mail even from Europe can take ages.

i've bought loads of stuff from europe, including Belgium funnily enough, i havent had a single problem as yet, where as i've had loads with uk sellers! dont fret, am sure it'll be fine. Postage has always been very quick for me aswell.
If it isnt, treat yourself to a nice cheap easy jet flight and give them a fright by turning up at the front door !0
