The good news it that it doesn't often happen with UPS like it does with FEDEX, but occasionally they will expedite the package delivery through customs then bill you for the duties on the backside, usually within a couple weeks of initial delivery. You probably made it through okay, so breathe easy for now, but do not be too surprised if you get a letter or email or even phone call from UPS about duties being due. Fedex did it to me once a year or so ago---I had just gonethrough registering my info with them for one package with duties, then about a month or two later another similar package came through with no obvious duties, and while I was celebrating they were billing me which I found out about 4 days later. Rare but does occasionally happen.
Celebrate your new kilt now, and then in a couple weeks celebrate again wehn you DON'T hear from UPS again about duties. Doubles the fun. Good luck.
