There's no duty on videogames, so just VAT at 20% for anything ordered online. Gifts over £39 also incur VAT. Plus any charges the courier has for clearing customs.

So it's a MiSTer, specifically using a DB9 port which you can't seem to get from anyone other than Antonio Villena who is in Spain. Would the MiSTer classify as 'videogames' or would the 20% VAT be applied?

You pay VAT - Duty and VAT are different things. Duty is an additional tax on top of VAT on certain product categories, there is no duty on videogames.
