The agreement between the EU and the UK expressly forbids customs tariffs. 
There are additional customs formalities, however, and some confusion in the 
early days, especially for small companies. And some transport companies 
like DHL and FedEx take advantage of the situation to rip off customers by 
charging them various ?processing fees? etc.

Still, I just bought some bicycle tires from Wiggle in the UK, and they 
arrived yesterday without any issues. It took a few days longer than it 
would have taken before Brexit, but there were no additional fees or any 
other costs.

Cheers,
Nathan
