I am in the UK and selling a piece of second hand jewellery on ebay (approx value �500). Someone in USA is interested and wants to know if they will have to pay USA customs tax on it when it arrives in America. Does anyone know?

Ask the potential purchaser if he can make sense of this lot:

and
http://hotdocs.usitc.gov/docs/tata/hts/bychapt er/0901C71.pdf

If he can't (which wouldn't surprise me!) he can probably get the information he requires by calling the US Customs & Borders Protection helpline on 877-CBP-5511. (If you want to call from the UK, the number is 00 1 (703) 526-4200). The lines are open from 0830 to 1700 Eastern Time (1330 to 2200 GMT).
