Since the same law applies to whole EU, I can tell you my latest "story". lol I usually import things that are not much over 22€ mark and I use the cheapest shipping option because the shipping fee is added up to value of package when taxed. Anyway for probably 20-30 games from either play-asia/ videogamesplus, I never had any issues with customs. 2 weeks ago a freind from Asia sent me a "belated" B-day present (game from play-asia) and to make things more convenient (from his perspective) he opted for FedEx shipping which was 37$. So game was 29,99 (few cent above 22€ mark), and shipping was 37 so that together was 67$, which was again over 45€ mark. The parcel was delayed by customs and for me to get it, would have costed me around 50€, because of the import fees, taxes and some additional nonsense. What I'm trying to say is, go for cheap shipping. You'll wait a bit longer, but you'll save money on both shipping and import duties since shipping in most cases alone will be over 22€ mark.
